science for kids reading for kids books for kids

"When students read literature that connects science to their everyday lives, the science becomes more interesting and relevant, and in turn, students are motivated to gain a better understanding of the subject matter."

Delo, L. 2008. Reading Aloud. The Science Teacher. National Science Teachers Association.

Shelterwood Books and Teacher Resources is constantly looking for new ways to connect science and literature for children. Since there are already a lot of resources available for the early elementary grades, our focus is on upper elementary and middle school. As this site grows we will expand our materials to include high school as well.
