North Star Vovage, The
Teaching Pre K-8, May 2001
Bigchalk.com and Fablevision have teamed up for this exciting online product built around the book, The North Star, by Peter Reynolds. The program, for grades 5-8, encourages students to identify their goals and follow their dreams.
The Classroom Kit contains a copy of the book, 30 North Star student handbooks filled with lessons and activities to help guide students in identifying their strengths and talents to reach their full potential, and the browser-based Teacher Resource filled with online activities.
We were delighted with the online interactive book with accompanying audio narration. TextMax lets you enlarge the web page text so it can be used like a big book, and PonderPlus poses thoughtful questions for students to consider as they read The North Star online. The voyage continues as students navigate through five island adventures to discover their own star and reach their true potential. Let the adventure begin! Call 800-860-- 9228 or visit the website for more information about setting up a voyage of discovery in your classroom.
