Open-Ended Stories
Three delightful books by Sandra Warren that bridge the storybook/activity book format, and a new teacher's instruction guide on how to enhance creativity through open-ended stories.
Each of the first three books has a story, teacher’s guide, and reproducible activity pages. These very popular books are reprinted after having been out of print for several years and each offers a lively and uniquely creative approach to learning.
Sandra Warren is an award-winning author and educator.
As an education consultant, it has been my pleasure to use and recommend Sandra Warren's books. ...There is always a need for quality literature that motivates children to think. The words and illustrations in her books combine to challenge young readers to think creatively about two seemingly ordinary things, a road and a table. They stimulate questions and a sense of wonder. In today's classrooms, teachers must teach to state standards. The most important standards and the most difficult to teach deal with critical thinking. If I Were A Road and If I Were A Table are effective teaching tools that provide a starting point for developing better thinking habits in students while, at the same time, fulfilling several state standards. Nancy Johnson, Educational Consultant, Marian, Illinoio
