This book would be best suited for younger readers who now have a schema for different types of water. This guided reading could open up discussion by asking the questions "where have you seen water vapor before?" "what type of weather would you see water vapor?" This book is great for older English language learning students who now have a schema for different parts of the water cycle as this book may help them see it in the world around them. This series of books is great for prompting questions to ask students about the world. This is a great book to teach while we are studying solid, liquid, and gas. I will split the class into three groups and have each group take one property of water, creating a jigsaw activity. This is the perfect book for first grade students, it has photographs next to the explanations. For example, the different phases of water. Also, in the back of the book it has “words to know.” This can be a great tool students can use when completing a worksheet. The back of the book is essentially a glossary. This introduces students to characteristics of a science text. The science is explained in clear simple terms. Water as a gas is a science text about the water cycle. It details the steps that leads to the transformation of water into a gas. I love how the text doesn't shy away from using strong science vocabulary and seamlessly includes definitions without disrupting the flow of the text. The accompanying illustrations are also helpful to students because it shows how where each step is most likely to occur in nature. This a great guided reading book teachers can use with their students because it has many of the structural elements commonly found in science texts, like characteristic events, causation, and descriptive attributes. While reading this students students can practice recognizing these structural elements. Frost, H. (2000). Water as a gas. Mankato, MN: Pebble Books. Water as a Gas is a guided reading book that explains how water can be a gas, liquid, and solid. I give this guided reading book a 5/5 because there are pictures available to explain the meaning of the text. For instance, the book says, “Evaporation makes wet things dry. Wet clothes dry in the sun.” To match this description of evaporation, a picture of clothes hung on a drying rack outside is shown. Visuals that describe the text is helpful for ELL students because they are able to grasp a better understanding of what evaporation is and how it relates to water. Additionally, text features such as labels are used. For example, a picture of ice is shown. Next to the ice, there is a label that says solid. Providing labels with pictures to describe a concept allows students to understand what the word “solid” means and provides an example of what a solid is which is ice. Students can grasp a better understanding that water can be a solid when it turns into ice. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
