Teaching Points: Prediction (Skill)-->Students can examine the roles that microbes play in our world. Student begin with a microbe (cause) and trace the effect it has on the world (effect). By studying this cause and effect relationship, students can use the relationship to make predictions. For instance, students can examine what would happen to the world in the absence of certain microbes.
Classroom Implications: This text would match well with Invisible Enemies and New York Times Deadly Invaders, especially if the students are in nonfiction book clubs. These nonfiction pieces make great additions to information contained in novels.
This is a working annotated bibliographic list of children's and young adult books. It is intended for this list to grow as my exposure to new texts expands.
A note about organization: Each book has several "tags" attached to it. This design accomodates different search purposes and is a way to purposefully peruse the list.
