The Girl with the Brown Crayon: How Childen Use… di Vivian Gussin Paley

I loved reading this book. it's true stories that children have said in a kindergarten class. it brings great perspective to how children learn and react to their surroundings and how they comprehend information.

The Girl with the Brown Crayon: How Childen Use… di Vivian Gussin Paley

This book was interesting because as an early education major, I was able to connect with this book as a teacher but not as a personal connection. Some of the ideas and methods she does in her classroom I would like to do the same. Such as if my students are invested in an author, I would have the children write letters.

The Girl with the Brown Crayon di Vivian Paley

Short but lovely book of insights from a teacher's last year in the classroom. It won't necessarily give you techniques (it's not that kind of book), but it could give you ideas about integrating stories into your work. And it's particularly enjoyable if you're familiar with Leo Lionni, the author her students read and drew and thought and talked about all year.
