How We Get Around Town

by April Lee

How We Get Around Town is aligned to the Common Core State Standards for English/Language Arts, addressing Literacy.RI.K.9 and Literacy.L.K.1. Large color photographs of transportation methods such as walking, biking, and driving are paired with descriptive text to demonstrate the many different ways that movement around a town can be accomplished. A graphic organizer in the back of the book reinforces the concept of walking, bicycling, driving a car, and driving a bus as civic transportation modes. This book should be paired with “Getting Around Our City” (9781448887224) from the Rosen Common Core Readers Program to provide the alternative point of view on the same topic.
