The Storybook Journey by Sue McCord Pdf

"The Storybook Journey: Pathways to Learning through Story and Play" is based on a solid understanding of how children develop. It is intended to inspire practices that support and enhance the growth of each individual child within the context of the group through children's stories. The suggested starting place in the journey is selection and discussion of a story from children's literature (its main ideas, concepts, significant aspects, appeal, and special meaning to individual children) and a brainstorming of ideas that will link facets of the story to the lives of the children. Teachers link the experiences in the classroom around the story concepts, careful observation of the children, and the gathering of necessary props and materials for the facilitation of the journey. The connections to the child's home, community and classroom play a critical role. Some children, such as those with autism, may create an inner world around a struggle or a story of struggle. Through the stories they choose, we may hear or see a glimpse into their world and learn how to move closer to support them. The emotional stability nurtured by caring adults in their lives allows children the freedom and energy they deserve to be able to concentrate, engage, learn, follow through and enjoy the world that is out there for them to explore. When families are a part of the Storybook Journey process, children experience the enriching and vital daily life extensions of the stories beyond the classroom. The Storybook Journey is neither a unit plan detached from the lives of children, nor a series of recipes developed by adults. Its uniqueness lies in its intention to give teachers enough content and inspiration that their own creativity and enjoyment of the Storybook Journey process will carry them, the children, and the children's families to new and interesting avenues of learning.

The Art of Slow Reading by Thomas Newkirk Pdf

"This important book rests on a simple but powerful belief&—that good readers practice the art of paying attention. Building on memoir, research, and many examples of classroom practice, Thomas Newkirk, recuperates six time-honored practices of reading&—performance, memorization, centering, problem-finding, reading like a writer, and elaboration&—to help readers engage in thoughtful, attentive reading. The Art of Slow Reading provides preservice and inservice teachers with concrete practices that for millennia have promoted real depth in reading. It will show how these practices enhance the reading of a variety of texts, from Fantastic Mr. Fox to The Great Gatsby to letters from the IRS. Just as slow reading is essential for real comprehension, it is also clearly crucial to the deep pleasure we take in reading&—for the way we savor texts&—and for the power of reading to change us."--Publisher.

Literacy Autobiographies from the Global South by Shizhou Yang Pdf

Drawing on autoethnographic research on literacy autobiographies from a Chinese EFL writing context, this book provides unique insights into literacy, voice, translingualism, and critical pedagogy from a Global South perspective. The book presents literacy autobiographies as a cultural tool for analyzing and refashioning learners’ and teachers’ sense of self in ever expanding dialogical spaces. In addition to highlighting teachers’ own stories around autoethnographies and translanguaging, it showcases literacy autobiographies from Chinese students themselves. The book theorizes the Global South as an ontological positioning that challenges colonial mindsets and practices concerning literacy, language learning, and narratives. It argues that literacy autobiographies from a Global South perspective can be reimagined as critical pedagogy for EFL writing teaching and learning, as well as teacher development. Validating and expanding student voices by presenting these literacy autobiographies, this book will be of great interest to researchers and students in the fields of TESOL, applied linguistics, English language teaching, second language writing, and literacy studies.
