  6. The Teacher’s Role • Choose the books • Share the books • Provide the books • Make decisions

  7. Math and Children’s Literature: Connections • NCTM recommends the inclusion of literature in mathematics. • NCTE/IRA recommends promoting reading and writing across the curriculum and the productive use of literacy skills to cover a wide range of texts. • State Standards based on national standards

  14. Albuquerque Turkey (sung to the tune of "Clementine") Albuquerque is a turkeyAnd he's feathered and he's fineAnd he wobbles and he gobblesand he's absolutely mine.He's the best pet that you can get..Better than a dog or cat.He's my Albuquerque turkeyAnd I'm awfully proud of that.He once told me, very franklyhe preferred to be my pet,not the main course at my dinner,and I told him not to fret.And my Albuquerque turkeyis so happy in his bed,'Cause for our Thanksgiving dinner...We had egg fooyong instead.
