Milo Educational Books & Resources Giveaway

Thus far in August, we have learned how to support our readers' strategic reading behaviors with the Fountas & Pinnell Prompting Guide in Spanish and we have met Attanasio & Associates, a wonderful provider of leveled readers in Spanish & English.

This week, dear readers, you will meet yet another provider of amazing resources for your classroom.  Do the two words "BIG BOOKS" make you swoon?  Okay, well then how about these THREE words: "SPANISH BIG BOOKS"?  Yeah, I thought so!  Well, these books provided by Milo Educational Books & Resources are truly beautiful creations.

In my previous school district, the bilingual coordinator and the science coordinator placed a joint order to provide each bilingual campus with a couple of sets of all of Milo's Big Books related to the science topics that were a part of our PK-5th grade curriculum.  The teachers fought over them LOVED them!

The text in these books is simple but rich and effective.  The photographs and illustrations are carefully chosen to scaffold understanding of high level content.  As I shared these books with teachers in grades PK-5th, every grade level wanted to claim the books for their rooms.  Even though some pages just carry short repetitive sentences, they can still provide a great foundation for introducing content and building background.  These books are perfect for teaching nonfiction conventions and would make great companions to my free Bilingual Nonfiction Conventions Notebook.

So, wouldn't you love to start the year with 2 new big books, 8 assorted small readers, two reading pointers and a bilingual poster (everything in the picture below)?
