picture books that you can also use to teach those concepts. There are many books by Demi (just one word) that teach cultures, etc.:
Muhammad, Marco Polo, The Greatest Power, One Grain of Rice,and more. You could also use these (as with any picture book) to teach strategies.
Black History/Civil Rights: The Other Side
There are many books by Jon Scieszka that I've used as read alouds that cover all the ancient civilizations: Knights of the Kitchen Table, Marco?Polo!,See Ya Later Gladiator,It's All Greek to Me, etc.These are all funny but do have factual information. My students love these and they want to read them on their own. Reading level is 3-4th grade.I have many more titles, but of course, my list is at school.
