-- Offers graphic illustrations such as webs, note-taking methods, and Venn diagrams.

-- Appendices provide an annotation and public information for each title, sample lesson plans, and thematic study units.
With the demand on teachers to meet and exceed the content-area standards in their school districts, they need more opportunities to try new classroom techniques. Also, with the steady decline of reading ability in our youth, they need more opportunity to read in and out of school. This book aids both these issues by discussing in detail how childrens trade books can be used to achieve national standards in the content areas (math, science, and social studies).
The authors begin with a concise discussion of the national standards and explain how they translate into usable teaching methods. This book is a valuable guide not only to understanding the standards, but to finding practical, innovative ways of achieving them through the use of informational books.
