| Summary |
"Everyday Literacy provides hands-on ideas for turning newspapers, signs, menus, catalogs, magazines, and other everyday items into literacy experiences. Each activity has a brief description, learning objectives, theme connections, materials, and literacy interactions. There are activities for different curriculum areas, such as art, science, math, fine motor, and music and movement, as well as take-home activities and ideas for field trips. The easy-to-use appendix has reproducible forms, a checklist of environmental print ideas, and a list of children's books that support the use of environmental print. The activities can be used to introduce a concept or practice an existing skill. This book is perfect for teachers of preschool, kindergarten, and early elementary children."--BOOK JACKET |
