My name is Kelci May and I am from a small town called Choteau Montana. I am currently a senior at the University of Great Falls. I am studying elementary education with an emphasis of communication arts. I cannot wait to pursue my dreams of becoming an elementary teacher.
What is the purpose of this blog?
The purpose of this blog is to show my students that learning is EVERYWHERE! Most learning is learned outside of school. Children tend to learn more because of what surrounds them. Not only is this a great way to engage all my students, but it can be used anywhere that has internet connection. Also, reading is a very important aspect of learning. If you cannot read, how are you supposed to learn? Teaching students how important reading is crucial. With that being said, my students will be able to look at books that I rate, read them and communicate with their classmates and I about them.
I will be rating the books on a 5 star rating:
Reading level system:
Pre-School books will not have much reading content. They will mostly consists of pictures with a word or two to describe what the picture means.
Early Elementary books are going to be in the pre-school through second grade reading level and they will be books that focuses on learning the words and how a book works.
Elementary books will be kindergarten through sixth grade. Unlike the early elementary books, these books will be more focused on the text and not so much pictures.
Middle School books are going to be in the sixth grade through eighth grade level. More text will be represented to ensure full knowledge is being gained.
High School books are going to be eighth grade through twelfth grade the books will be more complex. A more mature reader will steam from reading this level.
My favorite children's book.
