Reviews
"A welcome addition for elementary school teachers....The author, an associate professor and reviewer, has made every effort to cite works that are still in print and has included a chapter on sharing poetry (pantomime, choral reading, dialogues). Teachers and librarians will want to refer to this often, integrating poetic literacy in all aspects of the whole language classroom."- What's New In Books, "This well-organized and informative resource book for teachers and teacher-librarians outlines a formula for integrating poetry into all areas of the elementary school curriculum....The emphasis is always on making connections across curriculum areas and with linking the physical, rhythmic nature of the world with our senses, along with the uses of language for play and to express feelings. The author provides many excellent and valuable lists of thematically related poems. A particularly useful feature is individual titles of poems found in anthologies, which can be difficult to find, particularly with teachers' busy schedules."- Emergency Librarian, "Chatton's book is a gold mine of information....an invaluable resource for teachers and librarians who wish to increase students' use and love of poetry."

Synopsis
Watch what happens when you integrate poetry into math, science, language arts, and social studies. Student interest levels heighten. You bring new insights to these subjects and you help students develop an appreciation of the uniqueness of poetry as an art and as a form of communication. This book helps you find and use poetry to teach children to think and express themselves more clearly in all subjects. Each chapter in this how-to guide identifies poems and describes how they can be used to enhance specific classes or thematic units and suggests activities that relate to the class or theme. Also provided are bibliographic lists of the poems or collections used, plus additional sources of poetry.

    Excellent prices on used books in great condition. Shipped out quickly. Product condition is accurate to rating in listing. Thanks! NOTE: For this particular book (I ordered several), it came in a soft cover rather than hard cover as the listing stated. I contacted the seller and they responded promptly. They agreed that it was a listing error and provided me with a full refund for this book (without return required) proving they are both a responsible and trustworthy seller.
