MISS BINDERGARTEN CELEBRATES
THE 100TH DAY OF KINDERGARTEN


Written by Joseph Slate
Illustrated by Ashley Wolff
Available from Penguin Putnam Books for Young Readers
Available from E.P. Dutton ISBN 0---525-46000-4 

zzzGetting ready for the 100th day of kindergarten can be a real challenge - one that I have helped both my sons prepare for. So when it was time to help Miss Bindergarten and her students, I drew on firsthand experience. Miss Bindergarten is getting ready for another milestone. Tomorrow she and her class will have been together for 100 days. To celebrate, each student must bring "100 of some wonderful, one-hundred-full thing" Paper-chain links, stickers, a string of beads - that night the students are busy thinking, counting, and assembling their projects.

zzz Meanwhile, Miss Bindergarten is busy, too, buying ingredients for 100-day punch (made with 100 cherries), folding paper hats (that mark off 100 days on their brim), piling up blocks to make the number 100 - among other festive, math-oriented activities she undertakes to make the day special.


 

MISS BINDERGARTEN STAYS
HOME FROM KINDERGARTEN


Written by Joseph Slate

Illustrated by Ashley Wolff
Available from Penguin Putnam Books for Young Readers
ISBN 0-525-46396-8

zzzPoor Miss Bindergarten.
The flu has struck on Sunday, and she knows she will have to stay home from kindergarten on Monday. What will her students do without their beloved teacher?
zzzNever fear. A trusty substitute, Mr. Tusky, is at the ready. He's just a wee bit rusty, however, so the kindergarteners must help him out. They proudly demonstrate their skills in show-and-tell, sharing snacks, singing songs, and, of course, making get-well cards (and not just for Miss Bindergarten!)



MISS BINDERGARTEN GETS
READY FOR KINDERGARTEN


Written by Joseph Slate
Illustrated by Ashley Wolff
Available through E.P. Dutton Hardcover ISBN 0-525-45446-2

zzzA warm, humorous book for that special morning of mixed emotions--the first day of kindergarten or preschool. After observing my younger son's kindergarten class after dropping him off everyday, I illustrated the book with watercolor and pen and ink paintings bursting with detail.
zzz In a starred review, SLJ calls it "a super animal alphabet book with a clever twist." 1996




MISS BINDERGARTEN TAKES A
FIELD TRIP WITH KINDERGARTEN

zzThe 4th outing for Miss Bindergarten takes her on a field trip to five of any kindergartnerŐs favorite destinations. After a first stop at the bakery they visit the fire station, the post office, the library and finally, the park. Along the way, her class meets the people in their community who make the bread, fight the fires, deliver the mail, and check out the books. They have a chance to help and learn new skills at each location.
zzSharp-eyed readers can help the class spot shapes that show up everywhere.
