Customer Reviews

insightful and practical

Bobbi gives a great overview for the classroom with many practical ideas for the teacher who embraces a whole language approach. I have modeled much of my classroom after the book and have found it very successful with all of my learners as well as my own sense of well being. I highly recommend it! My first year of teaching kindergarten, I read it constantly and to this day it is a book that I do not lend out to colleagues because I can't bear to part with it.

Joyful Learning

An excellent resource for the whole language integrated kindergarten classroom. This book is useful for the new and experienced early childhood educator.
