It is so interesting for adults to see a situation through the eyes of a child. I had lots of fun opportunities to do that when I read my students’ biography reports each year. They read information about their chosen person in encyclopedias and other books–and gathered the information on note cards. Like all teachers, I emphasized that they must not copy material word for word from a book. As a result, their reports had some funny interpretations.
Here is one of my favorites:
“Abraham Lincoln was a very popular president. I’m pretty sure everyone liked him except his wife and John Wilkes Booth.”
COMMENTS FROM READERS:
“As a friend of Susan’s, wife of a teacher, sister of a teacher and mother of one, I already bought 3 books to send out, and one on my Kindle. Good job, Susan!”
