Title: Reading Seeds
Audience: Librarians, Teachers, and Parents Grades 1-3
Descriptor and focus: 

     Great books provide a sound academic and
social foundation for young, inquisitive minds.   Tapping into children's laughter and wonder, this literature collection builds enthusiasm for academic skills, character development, and social strength.
    Characters, settings, and situations in selections from the Mockingbird Books,
2007 TLA 2X2 Books, and the Kids Wings Award Books will provide a myriad of opportunity for laughter, projects, reading, writing, science, math, and music while exposing children to other cultures and developing a deep appreciation of the American traditions.   More than 40 picture books and easy chapter books representing every genre will become the catalysts for interactive problem solving skills, laughter, character development, and interdisciplinary foundational academic skills.
     Let them lead your students into an active, integrated curriculum that is rich in character, reading and math skills, science, social studies, research, problem solving, internet projects, and FUN...with the creative test-prep practice. The Reading Seeds units contain exciting activities such as crossword puzzles with word banks, art projects, songs, readers' theater scripts, web-support, TAKS-formatted comprehension, math challenges, character lessons, logic, writing guides, and more... all keyed into multiple-intelligences and TEKS Objectives.
