These bibliographies are organized picture books, fiction, and nonfiction. The nonfiction materials give background information about the holiday, as well as poems, plays, crafts and other ideas to help commemorate these special days. This bibliography lists a variety of materials that can be helpful in developing lessons plans and curriculum units in these areas. Included in the bibliography are juvenile books, videocassettes and computer software.
All bibliographies are available in the literature racks next to our new copy machine.
Both publications were created by the New Jersey Department of Education to assist teachers in constructing lesson plans and other learning activities that meet Core Curriculum Content Standards. The lists provide the title, publisher, grade level and call number of software that is appropriate for use with students in preschool through grade 12. These materials may be borrowed from the Library's Electronic Resource Center for seven days. The Library has ordered three copies of each of these books and will make them available as soon as possible. Additional information about these and other award winning books is available from the ALA website , or check out the bulletin board outside the Curriculum Materials classroom.
