PreS-Gr 1 Each of these books begins with the simple statement that we are all different. How individuals learn, play, communicate, read, and move are addressed in a straightforward manner answering the what, how, why, and where questions. "Aprendemos" begins by naming different things children learn like facts and skills, such as swimming and reading. Then it presents the different ways they learn by themselves or in groups; visual, touch, kinesthetic, auditory, and tactile. "Jugamos, Comunicamos, Leemos", and "Movemos" follow the same format. The themes are developed sequentially, making it easy for young children to understand the concepts. The photographs include multicultural youngsters with or without disabilities. They correspond to the texts, providing needed support for young readers. Each book includes suggestions of activities for parents and teachers to do before and after reading the volumes. Useful additions to engage youngsters in conversation about the different topics."Ana Rodriguez, Tamarac Elementary School, FL" Copyright 2010 Media Source Inc.
This series is illustrated with photographs of disabled children and adults participating in everyday activities. The message is that although we are all different, there are things about us that are the same: everyone learns, plays, reads, communicates, and moves, just in different ways. Though the writing is repetitive and bland, the Spanish-language texts are accurate. Glos., ind. Review covers these Discapacidades y diferencias titles: Todos aprendemos, Todos jugamos, Todos leemos, Todos nos comunicamos, and Todos nos movemos.
