Because you know the kinds of books toddlers like, when you go to the library to get books for your classroom,

Question

you'll choose

a. a book about how familiar machines work

b. a story of a girl who doesnt want to go to bed

c. a story of a young boy who lives on a farm in russia

d. a simple chapter book about the first day of kindergarten

Answer 1

I 100% agree with Becky Q's answer to the t. I am a preschool teacher and this is exactly what I would do, and it is what you learn when going to school for teaching, and all the trainings and workshops one attends as a teacher.

Answer 2

I choose books depending on what I plan the theme on that week.

A would be good if we are talking about how things work, I would choose familier machines and like another poster said it reminds me of Mr. Rogers.

B would be good if you are teaching routines and daily activities, children can relate with this very easily

C would be good if we are doing a cultural/world study. Simple geography is not a hard concept for this age, you would need a simple world map to have them help you show where it is too, it would be awsome if you are also talking about farms and/or animals that week.

D I feel is too much for toddlers, it will lose their attention much too fast.

Answer 3

familiar machines - this reminds me of Mr. Rogers's show.  Very educational and help them to think about how things work. A good way to express that these are machines and not living things.

farm in Russia boy?  Where is Russia?  I am not sure they would understand that.

the kindergarten book - if they are close to going to kindergarten

Answer 4

b

Answer 5

B

Im not sure why exactly, but i tend to pick out these kinds of books. I guess they have a moral that can be picked out easily from them.

Answer 6

I would pick B because it's something my toddler can relate to.  It's short enough to keep her attention.  D would be more for a 6 year old.
