Big Books

1/8/2014

An important questions that has come up about balanced literacy is "Where do we get big books from?"  and What makes a good big book?The main criteria for a quality big book is that it has repetitive rhythmical language, kind of like a poem. Kids need  to have fun with the language and rhythm and repetition lets them do that.   


Lehrmittelboutique has several books that you can download for free  and used as big books for grades K - 1.  The books are not really rhythmical but they're repetitive and even though I haven't used them myself as big books, I can see the students enjoying them.  


Go to "Der kleine Bär und "Früher und heute" by clicking on the link.
 
These three also could work well:  "Koala, Huhn Hermine, and Elefant Ernesto". 

Kindersuppe has a couple of good ones but you need a paid subscription.  It is worth it, though. 
Have you found any other ones to try?
