For Domain Introduction, bring in several children’s story books,

especially stories you know students are interested in and stories from

your students’ home cultures. You may wish to have students bring in

their favorite storybook as well. Display these stories in the classroom

throughout this domain. These stories can be read during Domain-

Related Trade Book extensions, Pausing Point, and Culminating

Activities.

Note to Teacher

The stories in this domain are fiction. Throughout this domain there are

many opportunities to invite students to distinguish between what is

make-believe or fantasy and what is real or true in the stories.
