2.0 out of 5 stars Homeschooler Review, August 14, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: A Guide for Using Farmer Boy in the Classroom (Paperback)
If you are really uninspired as to how to implement some fun activities or learning related activities while reading the Laura Ingalls books, you may want this as a starting point to give you some ideas; other than that, it really isn't worth the paper it is printed on in my opinion-add to that what it costs to have items shipped-I believe you would be better off deciding what you want your child to learn from reading the book; write up some questions you want him or her to be able to answer; skim the chapters for spelling word lists; do some activities that Almanzo did; have your child draw or create some crafts that correlate with the book; and you would do just as good a job writing a Literature Unit as this team did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth much more than the paper it is written on, April 17, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: A Guide for Using Farmer Boy in the Classroom (Paperback)
The great thing about the teachers' guides are that they give great ideas or building blocks for teachers to begin putting together learning units on a particular subject. Not everyone has the admirable talent of being able to bring characters and/or events alive through the use of classroom projects. The scathing review written previously to this one suggested ideas to use that were all mentioned in the teachers' guide that it was criticizing. Perhaps "the reviewer" would be further ahead to come up with their own ideas rather than paraphrasing what they are being so critical of.
