Additional Book Details
<p>It’s one of education’s greatest challenges: How do we shape our youngest students, who often are just learning how to hold a pencil, into capable writers within the span of a single school year?<br/> <br/> Text Structures from Nursery Rhymes offers the solution: a clear and actionable framework for guiding young students to write successfully in any style, from narrative to descriptive to persuasive.<br/> <br/> The key to the strategy lies in using familiar text structures to break down a story into its main components — for example, "Where I was," "Who I saw," and "What I thought" — in order to immediately thrust students into the role of the writer. <br/> <br/> This groundbreaking book provides 53 lessons, each centered around a classic nursery rhyme, and all the tools you’ll need to</p> Capitalize on the story’s rhythm and rhyme to make an instant connection with your students Convey the story’s text structure using the lesson’s whimsical illustrations, providing a visual model that resonates with children Lead the classroom in creating new stories — in words, pictures, or both — utilizing the text structure you’ve defined Put each nursery rhyme to work as a springboard for important language-arts topics Fine-tune your approach at every step based on your preferred teaching style and students’ progress <p>Put Text Structures from Nursery Rhymes to work in your classroom and discover how text structures, already a remarkable success in later grades, can also have a profound impact on younger students’ progress. <br/> <br/> Bonus!<br/> Includes eight downloadable paper dolls—1 man, 1 woman, 1 girl, 1 boy, and 4 animals. Your students can use the paper dolls to retell the nursery rhymes, illustrate their own stories based on a nursery rhyme, or even to act out stories from other books in your classroom library.<br/> </p>
