Village of Round and Square Houses | Ann Grifalconi

1 post | 1 read

The village of Tos is like no other village in the world, for in this village the women live in round houses and the men live in square ones. The story of how this came to be is told from the point of view of a young girl who grew up there. Ann Grifalconi's bold, dynamic art and rhythmic storytelling recreate this world and make The Village of Round and Square Houses a perfect book for reading aloud.

Village of Round and Square Houses | Ann Grifalconi

Such a great TL by Ann Grifalconi! This book was passed down by word of mouth in the village of Tos where Grifalconi heard this story told to her. In addition this book did receive the Caldecott honor! Stated in the jacket of the book, "Ann Grifalconi's bold dynamic art and get rhythmic storytelling make this a perfect book for reading aloud". This will definitely be used as a RA in my classroom.

Olsonashley19 ESOL strategy 16 and UDL principle 2.4 would work great with this story. Attached is a literature unit that goes along with the book https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Literature-Unit-for-The-Village-of-R... #lae3414sp19 5y
