Literature on the Move: Making and Using Pop-Up and Lift-Flap Books - Softcover

Literature On The Move is all about how to make and use pop-up and lift-the-flap books for young readers. This new resource offers complete guidelines for making eight basic pop-up and lift-the-flap actions, with numerous variations and a step-by-step approach to thematic bookmaking in the classroom as a student project. Designed especially for grades K-6, the instructions are well illustrated and simple enough to use with young children of all levels of ability. Through the process of book production (planning, writing, editing, drawing, and assembling) students learn to organize their time, structure a story, and develop a plot. When they have finished their projects, they will have a creation to treasure and share with others. In addition to the skills acquired through the process of producing a moving picture book, the satisfaction of the created product will further motivate students in reading and writing. Literature On The Move is a unique and splendid addition to any craft book reference shelf for both public school, parochial school, and home school instructors. -- Midwest Book Review
