The OCEAN Alphabet Book

Author and Illustrator: Jerry Pallotta, Frank Mazzola, Jr
Genre: Nonfiction
Award:
Grade Level: Prekindergarten - 2nd Grade

 This is an informational alphabet book that introduces ocean animals and list facts about them. For example the letter S; "S is for scallop. Scallops are like clams, and they have pretty shells. There are many other creatures whose name begin with S: sharks, sculpins, salmon, sand dollars, .." However, the letter X is blank; there is not an ocean animal that begins with the letter X.

I would use this book in my classroom, it is age appropriate and factual. I would use this book as a read aloud or have it in a reading center. Students would be able to choose a letter and write about that ocean animal. The students could expand on the letter they chose and present it to the class.
