Little House in the Big WoodsWolves and panthers and bears roam the deep Wisconsin woods in the late 1870's. In those same woods, Laura lives with Pa and Ma, and her sisters, Mary and Baby Carrie, in a snug little house built of logs. Pa hunts and traps. Ma makes her own cheese and butter. All night long, the wind howls lonesomely, but Pa plays the fiddle and sings, keeping the family safe and cozy.Little House on the PrairiePa Ingalls decides to sell the little log house, and the family sets out for Indian country! They travel from Wisconsin to Kansas, and there, finally, Pa builds their little house on the prairie. Sometimes farm life is difficult, even dangerous, but Laura and her family are kept busy and are happy with the promise of their new life on the prairie.Farmer BoyWhile Laura Ingalls grows up in a little house on the western prairie, Almanzo Wilder is living on a big farm in New York State. Almanzo and his brother and sisters work at their chores from dawn to supper most days -- no matter what the weather. There is still time for fun, though, especially with the horses, which Almanzo loves more than anything.On the Banks of Plum CreekLaura's family's first home in Minnesota is made of sod, but Pa builds a clean new house made of sawed lumber beside Plum Creek. The money for materials will come from their first wheat crop. Then, just before the wheat is ready to harvest, a strange glittering cloud fills the sky, blocking out the sun. Soon millions of grasshoppers cover the field and everything on the farm. In a week's time, there is no wheat crop left at all.By the Shores of Silver LakePa Ingalls heads west to the unsettled wilderness of the Dakota Territory. When Ma, Mary, Laura, Carrie, and baby Grace join him, they become the first settlers in the town of De Smet. And Pa begins work on the first building in what will soon be a brand-new town on the shores of Silver Lake.The Long WinterThe first terrible storm comes to the barren prairie in October. Then it snows almost without stopping until April. Snow has reached the rooftops, and no trains can get through with food or coal. The people of De Smet are starving, including Laura's family, who wonder how they're going to make it through this terrible winter. It is young Almanzo Wilder who finally understands what needs to be done. He must save the town, even if it means risking his own life.Little Town on the PrairieThe long winter is over. With spring come socials, parties, and "Literaries." There is also work to be done. Laura spends many hours each day sewing shirts to help send Mary to a college for the blind. But in the evenings, Laura makes time for a new caller, Almanzo Wilder.These Happy Golden Years Laura is teaching school, and it's terrifying! Most of the students are taller than she is, and she must sleep away from home for the first time. Laura is miserable, but the money is needed to keep Mary in a college for the blind. And every Friday -- no matter what the weather -- Almanzo Wilder arrives to take Laura home to her family for the weekend. Laura and Almanzo are courting, and even though she's not yet sixteen, she knows that this is a time for new beginnings.The First Four YearsLaura and Almanzo Wilder have just been married! Their life on a small prairie homestead begins with high hopes. But each year seems to bring unexpected disasters -- storms, sickness, fire, and unpaid debts. These first four years call for courage, strength, and a great deal of determination. Always, though, there is love, especially for the newest member of the family -- baby Rose.

Stunning artwork from the acclaimed illustrator of The Midnight Fair illuminates a sweet cautionary tale about a rabbit whose fabled soup-making gets away from him. Mr. Lepron is a rabbit who lives in a cozy burrow with many offspring. Every year on the first day of autumn, he reaps vegetables from the farmer's garden--carrots, onions, celery, beans, aromatic herbs, and much more--and makes the best soup on earth, adored by his family. As it simmers, he dozes and dreams of being a famous cook, hosted by kings. And sure enough, his soup is so good that it starts drawing creatures from all over--until one day a factory springs up in the woods, with Mr. Lepron presiding day and night and soup cans for sale in all the most renowned shops. But as demand rises, Mr. Lepron's dreams become fretful, and soon he starts hearing complaints: his soup is not as good as it was. Has his recipe changed--or has Mr. Lepron? How can he recapture the joy he once shared with his family? Mariachiara Di Giorgio's exquisitely detailed artwork appears lit from within as it captures the pastoral setting, a range of expressive forest animals, Mr. Lepron's fitful dreamscapes, and the palpable sense of peace as he rediscovers what truly matters.

Come nasce questo Progetto? I bambini sono i primi attori e lettori di questo quaderno. Con il loro entusiasmo, la loro creatività, la fiducia nelle loro maestre e negli esperti, hanno seguito uno dei percorsi possibili per crescere consapevoli dell'ambiente che ci circonda, amarlo e proteggerlo.In sintesi, per farsene custodi. Il Progetto nasce come il fiume, da un torrente di idee e parole dette, raccolte, meditate, nasce per lasciare traccia di un'esperienza condivisa tra territorio, scuola, famiglie. Accade nelle comunità delle buone pratiche, che condividono e costruiscono scenari significativi per le generazioni a venire, così come nelle comunità educanti.Rita QuinzioQuesto testo riflette il valore centrale dell'istituzione scolastica come comunità educante basata su dialogo, ricerca ed esperienza sociale, guidata dai principi democratici e dedicata alla crescita integrale dell'individuo, sottolineando l'importanza dell'istruzione per la cittadinanza e la partecipazione di tutti i suoi membri, indipendentemente dai ruoli. La scuola è come un'agenzia formativa che promuove la libertà di espressione, pensiero e coscienza, mentre sviluppa competenze come analisi, interpretazione, relazioni e mediazione.Il libretto in questione dimostra come tali competenze possano essere applicate e attualizzate, diventando un esempio di "buone pratiche" in cui condividere un'attività di ricerca sull'esperienza, valutandone l'efficacia e testandone la riproducibilità.Il rapporto tra l'uomo e la natura, in questo caso il Fiume Uso, è esplorato, evidenziando la scorretta tendenza a sfruttare la natura a scapito del rispetto reciproco. L'esperienza dei bambini viene presentata come un'opportunità per riflettere su questa dinamica e riconoscere l'importanza del rispetto, evidenziando la necessità di coltivare la sensibilità nei confronti della natura. Tutta la comunità educante attiva nel territorio, esprime gratitudine al Plesso Ricci e alle insegnanti per aver partecipato e collaborato con entusiasmo a un progetto legato al fiume Uso, evidenziando il valore di un'educazione che promuove il più grande rispetto per l'ambiente.
