Youvella, Charlene

Primary Voices K-6, v3 n2 p8-14 Apr 1995

Discusses how a student teacher tried to teach with real books, especially those written by and for Native Americans. Notes that the cooperating teacher's idea of literature study was to teach particular reading skills and to use worksheets and comprehension questions. Appends a 17-item annotated bibliography of recommended books about Native Americans. (RS)
