Books with title A Teacher's Guide to A Swim Through the Sea

Based on young Kristin Joy Pratts bestselling illustrated tour of the sea, this guide explores many ocean creatures using a handson approach while also promoting selfesteem and cooperation. Its lesson plans expand on the marine habitat while also presenting skills for living. The hermit crab, for example, is not only an example of camouflage but also an animal that periodically outgrows its home, and children explore the idea of homes and neighbors. It includes mindmapping suggestions and much more.

Praised by Jacques Cousteau, this book, illustrated and written by a16 year-old, is a classic introduction to the marine habitat. This 1994 alphabet and alliteration book continues to be a favorite of kids, parents, and teachers everywhere. It is truly an exceptional swim through an alphabet of sea creatures. Each page highlights a selected species with a full-color illustration and a paragraph of fascinating facts, surrounded by a frame full of extra creatures and vocabulary. It reaches a large age range because the large text is for young readers, while smaller text is for you or more advanced children. Kristin Joy Pratt (A Walk in the Rainforest) once again successfully inspires a generation of children about one of the most precious and fragile realms on Earth. A 48-page teachers guide (sold separately) is a valuable educator companion.
