Publisher's Synopsis
This patriotic song was written by folk singer and writer, Woody Guthrie, many years ago. While we love to sing this popular folksong, its meanings may be many and varied. This book uses this song to instill in young readers the appreciation and care for our many lands that are public for all of us to enjoy. This book also provides "Conversational Extenders" which provides information about the each line to help the reader share meaning, build vocabulary, entice critical thinking, and inspire love for our beautiful country! Beautiful photos illustrate and engage children in each line as well. "Literacy Links" provide suggestions for building literacy around this song, while "Learning Extensions" offer several learning activities for children around this beloved song. "This Land is Your Land" is part of the Me Complete! Early Learning Program, Volume 3, Unit 1, "Many People, One Country" unit.
