  • Description: The adult models what he or she thinks of when reading the page so the child gets a variety of perspectives on the ways words have different meanings. * Use computer programs to expand a child's interest in specific topics and to provide valuable information for later curriculum study. * Compare and contrast video adaptations of children's books for this and more advanced literacy levels. Primary-Grade Book Activities * Continue to spend time reading with the child; set aside a specific time and place. * Be familiar with Children's Choices books and other high-quality children's literature. * Become aware of the interests of your children and books that extend life experiences so they know what happens in the world around them. * Encourage children to share books read in school with parents and caregivers at home. Independent Reader Activities * Challenge readers to compare and contrast books. * Encourage children to develop an interest in a variety of genres such as biography, historical fiction, and poetry. * Encourage children to read books related to beginning career and vocational choices. * Seek a balance between school book activities; home and school literature activities; and familiarity with newspapers, magazines, and other text media that address contemporary social, cultural, and civic issues. Develop the Desire to Be a Lifelong Reader * Have students bring what is read to bear on what is viewed on film, television, and computer and other media technologies. * View technology in the reflection of the literature. * Keep in mind that the most memorable conversations are often filled with anecdotes from literature. * Relate what has been read to the solution of problems.
