11/19 Presentations

Today's group did an awesome job. I really enjoyed the video that they made. That was a really creative idea. I think if you did that in an actual classroom the students would love doing that. I know my group has been kind of nervous about doing the presentations. Now that another group has gone we are confident about it. Then the group presented a book that they had a recording of the book going along with it. This was a great idea kids will love it. Lastly they handed out some pictures of Chang and Tikki Tikki Tembo for us to color and put a popsicle on. This is going along with their video because they had their character on sticks.

Nonfiction

I didn't realize how many books that I have read that are nonfiction. Nonfiction books contain factual information and have lots of photographs which go with the story. The Magic School Bus series is by far my favorite of them all. As a child in school we would read the books and then watch the movies to go along with it. I remeber always looking forward to watching the movies. I did some research on childrens books that are nonfiction and there are alot of them I was surprised.
