The Common Core in Grades K-3
Description
Alles über E-Books | Antworten auf Fragen rund um E-Books, Kopierschutz und Dateiformate finden Sie in unserem Info- & Hilfebereich.
This guide includes hundreds of selections for grades K-3 published since 2007 recommended by The Horn Book Magazine. The titles are grouped by subject and complemented by School Library Journal's "Focus On" columns, which spotlight specific topics across the curriculum. Providing context for the guide, and suggestions on how to use these resources within a standards framework, is an introduction by Common Core experts Mary Ann Cappiello and Myra Zarnowski. These educators provide perspective on the key changes brought by the new standards, including suggestions on designing lessons and two sample plans.
Following the introduction, you'll find a wealth of books, by category. (Note that the guide is Dewey-Decimal based, so you may want to dig around, for example, in "Social Sciences" to find some titles that you might first seek in "History" or "Science.") Each section includes a listing of the top titles with brief, explicit annotations, and key bibliographic data. "Focus On" articles are appended to appropriate categories to support in-depth curricular development. Each of these articles includes a topic overview and list of current and retrospective resources (including some fiction) and multimedia, enabling educators to respond to the Common Core State Standards call to work across formats.
