Hi everyone!!!
Books are an extraordinary resource for teaching, both English and Science.
I use them a lot in class not only because children love them, but also because with them, we can review vocabulary, structures, Science content...I find them really useful!!!
Books provide a great opportunity to talk , to ask and answer questions, to check if they can understand or not......
Here you have some of my favourites:
Animals :
" There was an old lady", "Monkey puzzle", " The Gruffalo" , " The Gruffalo´s Child", "Superworm", "Tiddler", " From head to toes" ( also for teaching body parts)....
Healthy and unhealthy food:
" What's in the witch's kitchen?" " Don´t put your finger in the jelly, Nelly" " Ketchup on your cornflakes" " The very hungry Caterpillar"
Plants and seasons:
"Tap the magic tree"
Senses:
"Bear's busy family" " The red dot".
Festivals/ Cultural
" Ten timid Ghosts" (Halloween and counting) , " Father Xmas needs a wee" (xmas and counting), Winnie and Wilbur meet Santa, "All kinds of people" and "All kinds of beliefs".
I found most of them in Amazon.......
I hope you like them.
