Riassunto

Sit Tight, and I'll Swing You a Tail provides teachers in elementary through middle school with a fresh, thoughtful, and highly practical approach to using authentic story literature in their classrooms. Mr. Denman's book presents an examination of the elements of stories, along with examples of story learning center and gaming activities, and a step-by-step procedure to help students understand and write within different story genres. Underlying his strategies is a seasoned teacher/writer's understanding of stories and of the day-to-day dynamics of classroom instruction.
