SO WHAT CAN THIS LOOK LIKE FOR PRE-K? Project like writing (children’s book
making)
Independently read the introduction – Xiii-XVIII
Why book making in Pre-K?
![Page 9: May 11, 2012 Science and Literacy Integration. Already Ready Book Study -Nurturing Writers in Preschool (Building and Understanding and Teaching Practices.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081519/56649ed35503460f94be37d4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
So if becoming thoughtful about process, composition, craft, and more is a good educational goal for any writer, then why not these writers?

What makes preschool classrooms distinct are the decisions adults are making about what experiences children should be having.

7 INTELLECTUAL DISPOSITIONSWhere children’s experiences lead to : Problem solving and reasoning Questioning and problem posing Keen observations- gathering data
through all senses Imagining, innovating, and responding
with wonderment and awe Intellectual risk-taking Thinking interdependently Persistence
