Dear Rebecca,
Welcome to your world of children's literature this summer. Hopefully the invitations and opportunities to read, explore and experience story will inspire you to share this gift with the children you teach. The summer is a great time for reading, isn't it? Great teachers read children's literature.
It is not the act of reading that makes children smart, it is the art of reading stories that teach us about ourselves, that does.
Your syllabus is available online at childlitsyllabus_su10.htm
Your webpage will be housed at http://fvitali.tripod.com/443sp10.html
To begin, try playing the Jeopardy Game
and take the Genre Quizzle.
We will match up each Friday in June to talk books and stories!
In One Reading Peace...................Frances
