Tools
PreSchool-Grade 2-- A photographic journey around the world that looks at simple tools and how they make life easier. Full-color photographs and a minimal text depict children and adults cutting, pounding, digging, cooking, eating, cleaning, writing and counting, and drawing and painting. The photographs are candid shots of individuals using tools in their daily experience. A double-page spread features a miniature copy of each photo, the citation for where it was shot, and a more detailed explanation of the activity. A world outline map is also appended. This is a useful resource for units on workers. It would also be a good choice to spark an interest in geography along with Morris and Heyman's Loving (1990) and On the Go (1990, both Lothrop). --Eunice Weech, M. L.
