A Street Called Home

Rating:
Summary: Our entire school loved it!
Review: We so loved this book! Our entire school participated in a literacy event that recreated the text and entitled it "A School Named Fairview." Each classroom interviewed a special staff or support person in our building, then wrote a short paragraph detailing the function performed by their special assignment. Students then painted or drew a picture of themselves to mount on a 12x18 book page. Our art teacher helped mount the figures in special settings. The results are precious, and the entire school community has been enriched. We plan to make the pages into a book as special as "A Street Called Home."
