Review # 2 was written on 2013-05-04 00:00:00 Jody Ginn The title of this book is When It Starts to Snow by Phillis Gershator and Illustrated by Martin Matje. It was published by Scholastic Inc. in 1999. It has 32 pages and the grade level is from Preschool-2. The genre of this story is Speculative Fiction. The Lexile level of this book is 400L and the guided reading would be a J. This story is about many animals such as a cat, a black crow, and a beaver and what they do during the time that it snows. It shows what each animal does to keep safe during the cold times. This is how children can see what animals hibernate, come out and play, and how to keep warm by having a warm coat. Not all animals adapt well with the cold weather, so they have to find different ways to keep themselves safe. I really liked this story because you can relate it to students that live in our area because we have snow. They can understand how many animals, and ourselves have to try to find ways to be warm. A teaching idea that I would use with this book would be to create a story as to what you would do in the snow and to create a picture that correlates with your story. The CCSS that relates to this activity would be, CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.2.3 Write narratives in which they recount a well-elaborated event or short sequence of events, include details to describe actions, thoughts, and feelings, use temporal words to signal event order, and provide a sense of closure. This relates well to how the students can express their writing and what they would do during the snow and how it is a personal connection.
