 We have developed some
extension suggestions for many of Laurie Lawlor's books. If a title is
not hot-linked to a curriculum connections page it means no page is
available. However, if a title is of particular interest please contact
us or if you have suggestions to be added to the pages that are
available, please contact us.
Curriculum Connections are not intended to be "lesson
plans" per se. Rather the connections are intended as resource ideas
for the development of specific activities and units that will help you
meet your own district's and school's curriculum goals and objectives,
and to help you construct meaningful units of study to meet state and
national standards. There are many possibilities for using the
connections we present here. Research might be conducted to answer a
specific question arising from reading the particular title. Plays
might be written and produced by students. Discussions might be held
focusing on a specific paragraph or passage in a book. The links will
hopefully provide background for this research or for discussions.
Using these links to provide information and background to lead to a
more meaningful experience with the book or books.
