Contex Area: I would use this book in social studies. This book is about teaching children of Civil Rights Movement.It is a very well writen book of the struggles and pain, and how to over come them life is full of surprises for us all.

Stradegy ; 2.19 Finding Reading Territories is the strategy that reader need to ask questions, "Who am I as a reader?" One way to do this is to take a list of books you remember reading and loving. Then, make another list of books you remember that you disliking, look across the list and ask,"what is my my favorite book, What does it have in common? Why do I love this book? You might think about is types of character, the, topics, or the genre. Students will use index cards to write down question about things in the book they do not like and things they like about the book .What does this book have in common with other book? they have read .What does this book have in common with my favorite books..They will pass around the cards to each other and discuss what is on the cards.They will talk about why the author writes they way she write.Is it like other books?.How did her childhood affect her writing?

There, they confront the challenges of work, acceptance, and economic difficulties brought on by the Great Depression.

Rationale; The reason why I chose this book is because of the multicultural that the book brings. This shows how a 12 year old little girl rose up in all the struggles that she had on her life, Father who was murdered, Moved from her home..Leaving the monkey garden never to return. The Children would learn that they too can also rise up above hardship, This book show of power to never give up,no matter what.

Content Area: I think English would be best used for the Vocabulary words are amazing.Understanding the language of some of the words will help the readers put themselve in the story like somber; solemn or gloomy,

Strategies:
Word Treasure Hunt 1.5
Readers read the pictures and the words. First, read the pictures to understand the story, then go back to hunt for any words letters you know. The students would play with the words in the book or that is on the card that is on the table. They would look at the picture then try to find the word of that picture.tell the class what the word is and the meaning of it.
