DEM: *Childrens-Writing; *Creative-Writing; *Poetry-; *Writing-Instruction
DER: Classroom-Techniques; Elementary-Education; Story-Reading
AB: One of the techniques a teacher uses to enable her students to write poems is to use a story as a springboard. Her students read the story of "The Emperor and the Kite" (Yolen, 1991), which tells about Djeow Sew, the daughter of an ancient Chinese emperor. After students engaged in brainstorming the story, they drew Djeow Sew at the beginning and end of the story. Through mapping they discussed how her sad face at the beginning of the story had changed into a happy face at the end. Students then used guided writing strategies to write poems based on the story. The following week they wrote poems based on any story they had read, using the steps for writing poetry that they followed for the first story. A clear understanding of the story can help students stir their imagination, stimulate their creative and critical thinking and widen their vicarious or indirect experiences. The procedures in using a story to write poetry have helped the teacher's students to experience success and gain confidence in creative writing. Several sample student poems are included. (NKA)

AB: Intended for grades K-8, this book will help teachers and students launch their own author study programs, making powerful connections with authors while nurturing a community of readers. It argues that, with author study, all students form mentor relationships with authors; gain access to the world of authors and books; develop a wide range of effective reading strategies; and form a community of readers. The book presents strategies, activities, ideas, recommendations and sample author studies. Eleven chapters make up the book: (1) Author Studies: An Overview of the Essentials; (2) Choosing an Author; (3) Creating a Language-Rich Environment; (4) Connecting Students with Authors; (5) Teaching Skills and Strategies; (6) Grouping for Author Studies: A Sample Katherine Paterson Study; (7) Read-Aloud Author Studies: A Sample Ed Young Study; (8) A Sample Illustrator Study: Peter Catalanotto; (9) Integrating Curriculum through an Author Study; (10) Assessment and Evaluation; and (11) A Sample Schoolwide Model: "Meet the Writers." Ten appendixes (including resources for information about authors and illustrators, surveys, forms, letters, and checklists) are attached. (SR)

It also provides problem solving techniques for specific situations; a resource guide to multicultural books, audiotapes, videos, dolls, and games; 11 stories from different cultures to share with children; and creative activities that celebrate a variety of cultures.

Part 2 looks at influences outside the home and family, such as school and the media. Part 3 explains how to counteract negative influences on children's attitudes and to support positive ones. Part 4 contains a variety of folktales that offer views of other peoples and cultures. The titles are: (1) "The Earth on Turtle's Back" (Onondaga Indians, Northeast United States); (2) "Banh Giay and Banh Chung" (Vietnam); (3) "The Flight of the Animals" (India); (4) "Cinder Jack" (Hungary); (5) "How the Porcupine Outwitted the Fox" (Honduras); (6) "Simon and the Big Joke" (Trinidad); (7) "The Man Whose Luck Was Sleeping" (Persia); (8) "The Origin of Lamps" and "The Education of Goat" (Haiti); (9) "Treasure Mountain" (Yao People, Southern China); (10) "The Baby Leopard" (West Africa); and (11) "Lon Po Po" (China).
