Great Books for High School Kids
Author: Rick Ayers
Publisher: Beacon Press
ISBN: 9780807032558
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Teachers Rick Ayers and Amy Crawford always wanted to find a guide to the vast world of great books for teenagers-one that didn't talk down or moralize. When they couldn't find one, they set out to create it. An early prototype offered at Cody's Bookstore in Berkeley, California, was an instant success. Great Books for High School Kids is the culmination of their efforts. Collecting recommendations and essays from colleagues and advisers around the country, this is a rollicking, thoughtful, against-the-grain guide that challenges stodgy notions of what great books are and what kids are ready for. The book starts with seven essays by high school teachers about exciting, exemplary experiences they have had reading books with students in the classroom-from Dorothy Allison's Bastard Out of Carolina to Toni Morrison's Song of Solomon to Aeschylus's Oresteia trilogy. Augmented by an index of more than seventy subjects, the book also has an annotated list of hundreds of Recommended Great Books. The recommendations are playful and irreverent, ambitious and entertaining, and they go way beyond traditional reading lists. From classics to the unexpected, from literary novels to nonfiction, some drama, and even a little poetry, these are all books that teenagers have read with pleasure and can read on their own. Great Books for High School Kids is an invitation and a sourcebook for inspiring passionate, lifelong readers-a book that could seriously change the lives of teachers, of families, and of kids.

Frankenstein (Illustrated) for kids - Kids Colouring Book
Author: Agatha Christie
Publisher: Lazlo Ferran
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 42
Book Description
Note: This edition enhances the standard Kids book text with the addition of 11, small B&W illustrations, which can be coloured in, at no additional cost. It is NOT simply a colouring book. Victor Frankenstein dabbles with forces he cannot understand when he creates a monster at University in Geneva and brings it to life. Mary Shelley’s classic monster story has delighted readers and film fans for many years. This version of the story has been specially adapted for kids from nine to twelve years old. The language and vocabulary are easy, and emphasis is on action using past, present and future simple tenses. Punctuation meets UK or USA ESL/CEFR/IELTS Level B2 in most cases, although there are some 19th Century features of the text which do not comply and have been left intact to preserve the charm of Mary Shelley's text. The vocabulary in this book is slightly harder than for The Mysterious Affair at Styles and The Secret Adversary. You should try those books first if you are not familiar with words like the following: truthfulness, occupied, unimaginable, commenced, mechanism. Lazlo Ferran is a fully qualified English teacher and teaches in London. He has also published more than twenty novels, making him the ideal choice to adapt Mary Shelley’s stories for children. Vocabulary Stretcher and UK or USA ESL/CEFR Level B2 editions are also available. Paperback editions also available on Amazon.

Great American Artists for Kids
Author: MaryAnn F Kohl
Publisher: Chicago Review Press
ISBN: 1641601736
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 638
Book Description
Fun and easy art-appreciation activities abound in this resource that features 75 American artists from colonial times to the present. A brief biography for each artist tells why his or her work is important, and a kid-tested art activity tries out the artist's approach. For Georgia O'Keeffe, children will explore the concept of distance and foreground in a desert painting. To understand Frederic Remington's sculptures, they will create a face cast. Leroy Nieman will inspire a sketch of athletes. And for James Whistler, children will explore portraiture. Projects stress the creative process and encourage kids to try unusual techniques such as block printing, soak-stain, and stone carving as they learn about architecture, drawing, painting, photography, and sculpture. Great American Artists for Kids includes easy-to-follow icons to indicate the experience, preparation, and materials necessary for each project, as well as guides to the style, movement, or era of each artist. Resources include websites for further research or artworks, a glossary, and a list of artists by style.
