Adventured Of Sam, Anastasia Krupnik: Summary
This book describes the adventured of Sam, Anastasia Krupnik’s younger brother, from his first day as a newborn through his mischievous times as a toddler. The book begins as Sam as a newborn infant, and we get to hear his perspective as he grows from babyhood to toddlerhood to nursery-school age. First, there's the frustration of trying to communicate when everything he tries to say ends up sounding like "Waaahhhh!" He learns to walk and talk, hide food like broccoli that he doesn't want to eat under the living room rug, and make typical mistakes like getting into his big sister's things and cutting his own

    The Lost Thing

    The Lost Thing is the first picture book that Shaun Tan has both written and illustrated, and the result is a wonderful, warm, humorous story that will be read and enjoyed by a wide range of ages. There is so much to pore over and ponder in this book that it will be a welcome addition to the resources that teachers have to draw on. The story is an age‐old and familiar “lost dog story” told by the boy and addressed to the reader. It is a matter‐of‐fact anecdote, full of interest and compassion, but the accompanying illustrations make The Lost Thing extremely challenging. The juxtaposition of text and drawings make a book that is both thought‐provoking and filled with food for thought. The Lost Thing can be used in the classroom from middle primary right through to upper secondary and a great deal can be gained by those who read it.…

    Lev Vygotsky was a psychologist who based his theory of cognitive development on social aspects, such as language and social interaction. He theorized that children develop gradually, instead of in stages as suggested by Piaget. For instance, when the young child goes to the puzzle center and picks out a puzzle to construct, according to Vygotsky’s idea, having the child speak out loud to himself will help him prioritize the arrangement of the puzzle. Talking to oneself is known as self-talk, and children use it to walk themselves through difficult tasks. Ms. Ortega can quietly listen to the child constructing the puzzle to mentally note the procedure the child has decided to take to accomplish the goal.…
