    Write in it! Play with it! Use it daily!, August 25, 2006
    This review is from: The Reading Teacher’s Book Of Lists: Grades K-12, Fifth Edition (Paperback)

    This jewel caught my eye as I was browsing Barnes & Nobel. I winced at the price ($29.95) but while perusing the book my brain began filling with flashes of inspiration, creative neurons popped like fireworks, and I was hooked. Plus, it would look pretty on my book shelf.

    I did well! This tome has all the lists I regularly create (forgetting that I already made – and misplaced – two years ago), all the ones I haven’t because I can’t, and scores I would have never thought of.

    The “Content Words” section is exceptional, covering math, science, social studies, and geography vocabulary. Quiz the kids to see what they remember over summer!

    We are having a blast with the “most commonly used words in the English language” section. We do for-fun spelling tests off of the words, in numerical order. My girls were dismayed to find themselves missing words in the first 100 most common words, and quite proud that they were both pulling 100%’ers on words 351-400.

    Do you need Greek and Latin roots? Teacher’s correction marks? Braille, Morse code, ASL? Prefixes, oxymorons, or sesquipedalian superstars? How about a little onomatopoeia and palindrome word play? As a brain-warmer book – something to start the gears shifting in the morning – it’s fun. You can find enough thought-provokers, ego-boosters, and giggle-makers to roust any sluggish student (or teacher).

    The Reading Teacher’s Book of Lists is a wonderful resource for teachers, especially in helping develop instructional materials and lesson plans for grades K-12 & even for adult literacy. There are lists covering phonics, useful words, vocabulary, subject words, literature, writing, instruction, comprehension & study skills, assessment, spelling, the internet,ESL/language, word play, abbreviations/symbols/signs, and references. This is a highly practical and comprehensive resource for teachers of reading, but is also suitable for parents & students, and anyone interested in the subject matter. I would also recommend Jim Burke’s Reading Reminders:Tools, Tips, and Techniques as a companion to this.

    As a first year Reading and English teacher, I use this book almost daily. There are activities, strategies, ideas, writing prompts, and plenty of reference/trivia information. This book is packed full of bell activity material and five-minute fillers. I HIGHLY recommend it!
