Editorial Reviews

Product Description
What does it mean to care? Caring is a thoughtful, empathetic concern for the world around us. It is a pebble that, when thrown into a pond, spreads influential rings to the family, school, community, and beyond. In Creating Caring Communities with Books Kids Love, teachers and parents are shown how to build a caring community in the classroom and at home in order to help combat apathy and violence in our world today. Specifically targeted for grades K through 6, and incorporating a wide range of fiction and nonfiction selections, as well as offering a rich foundation of expository and expressive activities, Creating Caring Communities provides teachers with tools for promoting caring attitudes, behaviors, and values among young learners in their personal, family, school, neighborhood, nation, and world environments.

From the Publisher
This latest addition to Fulcrum's best-selling "Books Kids Love" series focuses on building a caring community both inside and outside the classroom.
