To create a classroom where first encounters with literacy are playful and exploratory - not formal and separate from the child's world - this book spills out a rich cascade of ideas in four areas: making the classroom a print-rich learning environment, including print in daily activities, practicing literacy through art activities and dramatic play, and recasting the teacher's role into spectator, advisor, resource, and scribe. Hundreds of ideas support these goals. Grades preK-2. Suggested resources. Illustrated. Good Year Books. 204 pages. Second Edition.
