    First and foremost, Regie is a teacher and it shows.
    —Teaching K8
Invitations has encouraged thousands of K-12 educators to put whole language theory into practice. Now available separately, with over 65 percent new material, the section of Invitations known as The Blue Pages has been updated, expanded, and revised to provide the most comprehensive annotated teacher resources available in one place. It includes:
  • the latest and best children and young adult literature K-12, organized by grade level and indexed by title/author, author/title, and illustrator
  • supplemental literature lists, including titles for emergent readers
  • comprehensive listings of multicultural titles, including Latino, African American, Asian American, and Native American
  • professional texts
  • assessment and evaluation books and resources
  • spelling books and resources
  • journals, journal articles, and newsletters
  • literacy extension resources that support the integration of the language arts across the curriculum—in mathematics, science, and social studies
  • resources for author/illustrator studies and parent education/communication
  • extensive and practical appendixes for classroom use.
If you already own Invitations, update your copy with the expanded Blue Pages.
