Pocket Charts for Emergent Readers: 30 Fun, Interactive Cross-Curricular Charts That Build Literacy (Grades K-1)

The cover of the book looks like there are many wonderful ideas and activities. However, there are black and white masters and more writing for the teachers than hands-on activities for the students. Making these activities will take a lot more work than I anticipated.

As a teacher with 90% of ESL students in my class, I found this book to be very useful. It's packed with links,short poems and ideas that are easy to set up. My 1st graders like to use the charts alone, as review materials, while I work with less adevanced students. A book I use a lot!
