In this deceptively simple and beautifully illustrated book, the sights and sounds of the first thaw come alive. |
Teaching Ideas: |
Read this book aloud for its descriptive details. Teachers could use Bleich's heuristic to find words that learners respond to and use clustering to examine the organization of the details in preparation for a writing activity. The illustrations provide vocabulary building for ESOL students. Students may want to guess where this story takes place and when. |
