I am so excited to announce that the Remenar seminar is expanding! In January of 2013 I’ll start teaching a new seminar tentatively titled “The Best Books to Teach the Common Core State Standards in Reading (grades K-3)“. My seminar covering great books for preschoolers and kindergartners is still available through the Bureau of Education & Research (www.ber.org). I have a stack of books I’ve pulled to include in the new handbook, but I thought I’d ask all you parents, teachers, librarians, authors, and illustrators: what picture books do you love to share with kids in grades K-3? I’d love to include your favorites! You can post suggestions on my website, my Facebook page, or email me at kristenremenar@gmail.com.
P. S. Thank you to my talented author/illustrator husband Matt Faulkner for the cute drawing, and no, it’s not a portrait of me. My neck is bigger.
I really love your handbook and cannot wait for the new edition.
Thanks, Michelle! The new handbook will be available in January, 2013. I’m working on the new handbook all through the summer, so if you have favorite books you use in your classroom that you’d like to see included, please shout ’em out!
