review 1: Audience: First GradeOpening: (Use at the beginning of the year) Today we are going to read a book about manners. Who can think of some good manners we should use in the classroom? (Write a few on the board and discuss why they are important) Let's see if the ones we came up with are in this story, and I'm sure we will learn a few others together. After we read the story, we will write some new manners we learned on the board and discuss why they are important to use in the classroom. This will help us to get along better each day and have a respectful learning enviornment.
review 2: Manners Mash-Up: A Goofy Guide to Good Behavior is a set of 14 spreads by 14 different famous picture book illustrators. Each spread is of a different place (from a bus to a swimmi... moreng pool) and includes text about the good manners one should have, along with pictures showing bad manners some may have. It is a humorous and captivating way of introducing younger children to manners. I would choose this book for a manners lesson with grades Kindergarten through 3rd, although the page on 'Table Manners' may need to be skipped as the picture may be too disturbing or scary for some younger children. This book could also be used for older students, even as old as high school and beyond, as it illustrates 14 different styles of artistry which would be very beneficial for art lessons.Arnold, T.
