I do teach preschool children & some of them have started to do reading. I was just wondering what are some good ideas of books to do for reading.

I have done one of the flower & killer whale explaining each part of the flower & killer whale. Is there any other ideas???

The ones that do do reading do have books to take home for reading but this is just an extra bit of work during the work cycle

try information books, that are brief, as you are doing. marine life, dinasours, rocks, anything that will make them think they are smart.
kids these days are like "im smart. i did 345 * 684"

since you haven't told how they respond to your reading of books, i can not determine what books they might like.

For early readers the key is: PICTURE BOOKS. The colorful pictures is eye candy for them, it hooks them into reading. Also they help them to clarify meaning and comprehension.

Classics:
1. The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle
2. Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak
3. Guess How Much I Love You Sam McBratney
4. Good Night, Gorilla by Peggy Rathmann
5. Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? by Bill Martin
6. If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Joffe
7. The Little Engine that Could by Watty Piper & Loren Long
8. Kitten's First Full Moon by Kevin Henkes

I have a montessori school of my own and spend some time on religious holidays. It is very important. I have even ordered books about the different holidays around the world which are available in the classroom and read by the children. For clarity one holiday is one book. I then place them in the room around the time of the holiday. I dont do all the hallmark holidays but have info on the religious traditions. What the children learn through discussion is that we are all actually more similar than different. The December holidays nearly all have lights of some kind so I use that item as a spin off into discussions. The children take it very seriously and are curious. They learn to respect differences and look for similarities.

do you mean that your kids are reading? Here are some tips for early readers.

Choose books that have interesting pictures. The pictures should relate to the text.

Choose books that have text patterning.
Ex. pg. 1, I like dogs
pg. 2 I like cats
pg. 3 I like mice

and so on. Work on high frequency words ( sight words) like I, like, the, it, on, is,etc...

Practice using the pictures to help gain meaning from the print.

continue to work on Phonemic and Phonological awareness and invite the parents to do the same things at home.
