This compendium of outstanding read-aloud choices for grades pre-K-3 will enrich and extend content area instruction, helping busy teachers to meet curriculum requirements within the confines of their busy schedules.

It's a familiar and unfortunate story: educators everywhere are being asked to do more teaching with less--less money, less staff, and less time. One easy way to provide more content area instruction to very young readers is by scaffolding beneficial learning subjects within memorable read-aloud activities. This augments the instructional curriculum and keeps learning fun--without adding to the educator's already-full plate.

Read-Aloud Scaffold: Best Books to Enhance Content Area Curriculum, Grades Pre-K-3 offers teachers and librarians over 700 content area connections through carefully selected, recently published children's trade books. These selections include fiction and non-fiction titles that represent outstanding read-aloud choices that will augment the instructional curriculum, covering subjects ranging from history to holidays to special events, and from biographies and memoirs to poetry and character education. A Closer Look suggests outstanding read-aloud choices related to key units in the curriculum and features discussion points, cross-curricular activities, writing prompts, and related online and print materials.
