Here's a question for you - I LOVE doing author studies with my kids...And I always do Jab Brett for the Dec/Jan months because of all her christmas and winter books...but she is too high for the majority of my 2nd graders to read independently (when I taught 3rd, they did a lot of the activities independently - as centers). How do you do it?? Do you read the books to them and THEN have them do the activities?
Thanks!

Yes, I read the books to them. We also focus a lot on her illustrations and borders which is something they can do without being able to read the words. (They still find them and check them out on their own from the library even though they can't read them, but they are so obsessed with her and they love finding things in the books that we've talked about.) I also use the videos on her website to teach about her. She gives very good information about how she gets her ideas and the process behind her books. Even though they can't read her books, I know that what I do creates a love for her books so that they'll continue to seek them out as they can begin to read them. I hope this helps.
