It is often difficult to only use one strategy for selecting a book. This studywas created as a way to further discover the criteria children use to select books, and what strategies come from these criteria. The purpose was to examine children's book selection processes when provided with different books to select from. A group of 10 students from a first grade classroom and 10 students from a third grade classroom were observed and interviewed based on their book selection strategies. The students were provided with five books to select from, where they were asked to pick their favorite book. The students were observed while they selected a book. Following the observations, the students were interviewed to gain further insight on what strategies they used for selecting their book.The observation notes and interview responses were then analyzed to find patternsand differences. First and third grade students appeared to be influenced by pictures when selecting a book; however, they state using multiple strategies when selecting a book. The researcher concluded first grade students were less consistent with articulating the strategies they used, while third grade students were more consistent in their responses. 2014-04-09 English text Bowling Green State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu1394116197 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=bgsu1394116197 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
