Help with preschool reader book ideas?

I do teach preschool children %26amp; some of them have started to do reading. I was just wondering what are some good ideas of books to do for reading.



I have done one of the flower %26amp; killer whale explaining each part of the flower %26amp; killer whale. Is there any other ideas???



The ones that do do reading do have books to take home for reading but this is just an extra bit of work during the work cycle

try information books, that are brief, as you are doing. marine life, dinasours, rocks, anything that will make them think they are smart.

kids these days are like "im smart. i did 345 * 684"



since you haven't told how they respond to your reading of books, i can not determine what books they might like.
Reply:For early readers the key is: PICTURE BOOKS. The colorful pictures is eye candy for them, it hooks them into reading. Also they help them to clarify meaning and comprehension.



Classics:

1. The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

2. Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak

3. Guess How Much I Love You Sam McBratney

4. Good Night, Gorilla by Peggy Rathmann

5. Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? by Bill Martin

6. If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Joffe

7. The Little Engine that Could by Watty Piper %26amp; Loren Long

Reply:do you mean that your kids are reading? Here are some tips for early readers.



Choose books that have interesting pictures. The pictures should relate to the text.



Choose books that have text patterning.

Ex. pg. 1, I like dogs

pg. 2 I like cats

pg. 3 I like mice



and so on. Work on high frequency words ( sight words) like I, like, the, it, on, is,etc...



Practice using the pictures to help gain meaning from the print.



continue to work on Phonemic and Phonological awareness and invite the parents to do the same things at home.
