My Chinatown: One Year in Poems di Kam Mak
This book could be used for upper primary and intermediate groups. This is a book of poems that depict an immigrant's life in Chinatown. This book would be great to use for teaching about Chinese culture, poetry, and even just to have in the classroom, available for independent reading.
This book is good for an intermediate age group. It tells the story, through a series of poems, of a boy (the author) moving from China to Chinatown in the US and finding the similarities and differences in the culture and everyday life. I would definitely have it in my classroom, and possibly use it to encourage empathy in my students, and inform them of the importance of preserving culture.
This book is about immigrating from Hong Kong, China to the United States. The character in the story shares his experiences growing up in Chinatown and how he misses his home. I would recommend this story because it does well sharing the difficulties and immigrant may face growing up in a new place. The book also had colorful illustrations and includes aspects of his cultures food and holidays in the book such as New Year's Day. This would be great book for 2nd and graders and a read aloud for 5th graders and below.… (altro)
This is a great book to overview the hardships and beauty of immigration. Some people have a really hard time finding a sense of community when they immigrate to a new country because everyone is a stranger to them and this story outlines a boy finding that community and eventually becoming more comfortable in his own environment.
