Subject: Science Non-Fiction- On a Beam of Light: A Story of Albert Einstein by Jennifer Berne (56 pagesPublished April 23rd 2013 by Chronicle Books (first published April 1st 2013))Twin Text: "What Do You Do With an Idea?" by Kobi Yamada, Mae Besom (02/01/2014)I would use these texts to use in a science lesson, mainly with an invention unit or the scientific method. I would read the "What Do You Do With an Idea?" to introduce inquiry and thought, then read them and link it t...o this book, which is about Albert Einstein and his life. As a child, Einstein didn't read until he was older, and questioned everything. A quote from the book says "He asked questions never asked before. Found answers never found before. And dreamed up ideas never dreamt before" (Pg. 48). In the book it talked about atoms, speed of light, and how he got well- known by scientists and professors everywhere. This is a great book to read so kids know that questions are good, and not everyone learns or understands everything the same. Science is about discovery. They may questions things themselves and discover something new for the world.Strategy: KWL Chart- graphic organizers that help students organize information before, during, and after a lesson. A KWL chart would be useful for these texts, because it would allow the students to think about what they already know about the topic, and write what they want to learn and their gained knowledge at the end. I would introduce the topic of Albert Einstein, after reading my twin text, by using a K-W-L chart. Students would write what they know about him before I read the book. They could also write down what they want to know about him. Then as we read we would discuss his story, and how he was important or different.

In this book about Albert Einstein, introduces readers to a quiet young boy who spends most of his time wondering about life’s mysteries. His mind questions the universe works and our place in it just through when he obsess people performing daily task . Einstein’s took over modern science have changed the way we understand our world and this book does a wonderful job of explaining his greatness and whet he did for science todayMoreLess
