Kickoff your review of The Wind Blew

This is a fun read aloud volume for preschoolers and a useful beginner reader book, but information technology wasn't that slap-up, in my stance.

The premise of the wind taking everything abroad and into the air (and and so what happened) was skilful. But, while the story is fun to read aloud, the rhyme doesn't quite work in a place or two. And while the illustrations are colorful and fun to friction match upwardly with what the wind is doing at any particular fourth dimension, and I think many children will enjoy doing that and will like the colorful

This is a fun read aloud book for preschoolers and a useful beginner reader book, merely it wasn't that great, in my stance.

The premise of the wind taking everything abroad and into the air (and then what happened) was good. But, while the story is fun to read aloud, the rhyme doesn't quite work in a place or ii. And while the illustrations are colorful and fun to match upwards with what the wind is doing at whatever item time, and I think many children will enjoy doing that and will like the colorful pictures, the art style doesn't wow me. Worst of all, the facial expressions of the people running later their possessions as the wind carries them merrily along are, in all but a couple pictures, nearly dead. Information technology was kind of weird. And, it could have been so much better. Rereading did help me see that people's facial expressions do change from page to folio, simply I recollect in too subtle a way to be sufficiently entertaining or amusing.

The Wind Blew is about different aged people and their things as information technology shows the effects of the air current blowing. The elder homo has an umbrella which was blown away from the wind. The little girl had a airship and the wind took that one too. The wind took a hat and kite up in the air. It tossed a shirt upward to the sky. The wind also blew the judge's wig, the letters from the post man and the flag from the flag pole. In the end, the wind stopped and the things came back down, but then the wind started aga The Current of air Blew is nigh different aged people and their things equally it shows the furnishings of the wind blowing. The elder man has an umbrella which was diddled away from the air current. The niggling girl had a balloon and the wind took that one too. The wind took a hat and kite upwards in the air. Information technology tossed a shirt up to the sky. The wind also blew the approximate'due south wig, the messages from the post human and the flag from the flag pole. In the stop, the wind stopped and the things came back down, but and then the wind started again and blew all the things to sea.

I think that this is a nifty book to have in your classroom from the fun items that get blown into the air like the judge's wig. I belive that this book also features crosscutting concepts that children will benefit from reading this volume.

A pedagogy point for this volume would be to focus on atmospheric condition and the feature of air current. A second lesson could be to focus on retelling of all the unlike items that blew upward into the sky from the current of air.

Some education points may be rhyming or sequencing. The educational activity point that I would make with this lesson would relate direct to weather. I think this book would be an interesting style to engage readers about weather, and I think it would be an interesting way to introduce students to air current. I think it would be fun for students to go outside on a gusty day and identify characteristics of wind. Students could take things like balloons, bubbles or more to watch how the wind carries them abroad. They could also do things such as run with the wind and run against the wind. They could fifty-fifty talk about times in the car where their parents/caregivers take told them that the wind is taking them all over the road. I recall this would be a very fun and engaging style for students to learn about wind. ...more than

The wind is stiff and swipes upward any is in it's path. Later on each folio and issue was stated, the rhyming words and illustrations left a smile on my face up.
