The Big
Bug Search
(5 copies)
by Caroline
Young
|
Science,
picture book, puzzles, ages 4 and up. "From huge hairy spiders
and slimy black slugs, to darting dragonflies and spindly stick
insects, there are around 100 bugs hiding on every double-page
of this book. Each beautifully illustrated picture puzzle shows
a different part of the world, crammed with the tiny creature
that live there." (back cover)

The
plethora of illustrations of various types of animals and their
habitats facilitates the development of students' science vocabulary.
The Shared Reading approach works well with this series, as the
teacher can sit with a group of 5 students while studying certain
features of the book. Alternatively, students can work in pairs
to discuss the content in order to develop academic language and
literacy.
