Hurry Home, Hedgehog!: A Bilingual Book of Sounds
Hurry Home, Hedgehog!: A Bilingual Book of Sounds | Belle Yang
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
In English and Mandarin Chinese, Belle Yang's bilingual board books celebrate the natural world with simple concepts and beautiful, bold illustrations. Wet weather is coming -- whoosh! As rain falls like soybeans -- ping ping, pang pang -- Hedgehog runs quickly --pitter patter. Soon he will be safe and warm with Mama -- purr purr. What other sounds does he hear along the way? Tonal marks used in the book are explained in a final spread, along with a pinyin translation of the Chinese characters.

Hurry Home, Hedgehog!: A Bilingual Book of Sounds by Belle Yang is such a cute little book (F and RT). It has Chinese translations on every page, making it great for English Language Learners. It encompasses UDL Principle 1.3: Offer alternatives for visual information, if this is made into a readers theater script. It also has ESOL Strategy 24: Incorporate the culture and the language of second language learners in your curriculum.

gnewman A good resource that provides different levels of story maps is from https://www.teachingbooks.net/clp.cgi?master_id=49532&of_id=9. Each level of story maps gets slightly harder, which is great for customizing lessons for all kinds of students. 5y

hkeiger I love that! I have really never seen a Chinese/English book for children! Definitely something that would be cool to keep in a classroom library. 5y
