Publisher's Synopsis
Build your language arts instruction on a literature base-and do it your way. Instead of promoting new methods or the latest fad in teaching, this new book makes it easy to integrate literature into your current plans for teaching speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. The author describes nearly 200 books (arranged by genre, structure, or form), accompanied by teaching strategies and goals, focus-units or themes, and supporting activities that will connect literature and language arts.
