My Take on the Book
In the table of contents, there are 12 activities listed. Each activity will give the teacher specific suggestions using the Grateful Jake books written by Emily Madill.
The activities provide opportunities for discussion and hands on creativity. Some of the ideas include "acting" for the students. Some of the suggestions ask the students to write. You can use art an an option too.
All the entries are written in the format of a lesson plan. The resource book is well written and I believe using Emily's books and this resource book will open an avenue of discussion with your students you may not have had before.
