Something about myself

Come from China
First year at UF
Love kids
Huge fan of Harry Potter

I choose the topic getting used to the new enviroment because I myself come from a totally different culture and now study here. It takes me a while to get used to everything here. And I feel like it's not only me, children who are immigrants, children who move with their parents they may also face the same problems.

It is an very important theme because as the world develops, the globe becomes smaller and smaller. It can be usual for kids to move from one place to another. It is very essential for these kids to adapt to the new enviroment and culture as soon as possible. I choose these books for 4-5 grade children in elementary school.

Since it is a book about a boy chase his dreams.I think I can use this book to teach kids about dreams.
After reading the book, I'll ask kids what are their dreams. They can write it down or discuss in groups.
And I'll let then imagine what challenges they might meet to realize their dreams? I won't ask them how to solve these problems because it might be too much for elementary students. Just trying to let know you have to work hard to realize your dreams.

This book is about a girl born with disability. I think it is good for teaching lessons about disability or disease.
I'll ask kids what do you and Josie(the main character) have in common? There are a lot to say.
The book is written in a free verse, so I would like to let kids create their own free verse, it can be any topic they like.

I have to say that it's a great book that shows traditional Chinese culture, like how to make dumplings, how to use chopsticks.
Students may come from different culture backgrounds or regions. The class can hold a culture week. Students come from different culture can introduce their culture to the class.

It is a Newbery Honor book.  Students can learn about the civil rights movement and the great migration through this book.
Students can also learn the concept of biography. They can learn to write things about their own life.
