This book follows you, like a river under ice. What a balm to read a book so lovely that moves at a measured pace in this fast-paced age. That, too, is the point of The Bear , where life itself is lived with deep attention to the , landscape, and seasons by the very last humans on Earth, who by necessity and love share what they learn in remarkable fashion. This is a book that takes the reader to heart: a story to be savored, a grace to be received. This beautiful and elegant novel is a gem. Reading The Bear will bring you back to the wonder-filled stories of childhood, the sort that linger, that alter our understanding of the world, that shape who we become. Crafted with as much care and mastery as the finest oaken bow, this is a book that manages to be both timeless and urgent, clear-eyed and tender-hearted, archetypal and unconventional: a bedtime tale told by a prophet. A wonder in itself. A tight yet expansive novel in prose so vivid you forget these are words and not the cedar, trout, and stones of a post-Anthropocene Earth. This discussion will cover ideas of reciprocity, such as what sorts of punishments fit different kinds of crimes, and will introduce students to the idea of how a punishment can be just. Then you might ask them to explain what makes something just. Later in the discussion, this will be brought up again in the form of reciprocity: whether or not justness comes from a punishment being equally as bad as the crime. By questioning alternatives the Bear could have taken, we bring into question the necessity of punishment. Perhaps death was not a good punishment for theft. Perhaps a less violent form of retribution could have been enacted. From here, you could take the two actions of the Rabbit and the Bear and compare them, asking if their actions are equally bad, and then if thievery or murder is worse. Since murder has been established as wrong, you can conclude that the bear ought to be punished. Perhaps you believe that the Rabbit does not deserve to die over theft, as death and lost property are not equally harmful, but you you might think that a punishment for killing someone could be death. This section can also touch on revenge, asking if it is different from punishment. This can introduce the idea of intentions coloring the morality of actions. Does murder differ from capital punishment? And what about how the intention of a crime affects how it is punished? If, for instance, the Rabbit only found the hat and was not aware that taking it would be thievery, does the need to punish the Rabbit change? To finish off this topic, you can ask if the idea of a punishment being just is dependent on the equality of the punishment and the crime. Is this a proper definition? Working with such a definition, can killing ever be a just punishment, especially if it is, as often viewed, the worst action one can do. Because if it is the worst of the worst, what could it justly punish other than itself? The Bear asks the rabbit whether it has seen his hat. Why are you asking me. I would not steal a hat. A squirrel comes and asks whether the Bear has seen a Rabbit. I would not eat a rabbit. Original questions and guidelines for philosophical discussion by Meredith Marshall and Yuwei Zheng.

The boy, the man and the dog had started to search for the bear. The dog sniffed his way around and found the bear. The driver decided to drive the three of them home. When they got home, the boy gave the bear a good wash as he had just come from the dump. The bear did not tell the other toys where he had been. The boy loved the bear and always made sure that he was all right during the night. Suddenly the bear started to speak and the boy was left surprised! This is a good book to read to children in Early Years, as it is a short simple story and will keep the children engaged. Oct 15, Daniel Smith rated it really liked it Shelves: ks1. This story is about a bear that gets lost from his owner after being taken to the 'dump'. This would be a great guided reading book as it is a big book, the simplistic text can be easy to read aloud either independently or as a whole group. The language is simple and have short snappy sentences which has a colour coded scheme which can help in children reading different parts of the book.

The book is very funny for me so I would say this would be even funnier for young children and because this book is part of a series, the children can explore the other books therefore allowing them to extend their reading abilities. Looking at this as a shared text with younger children, this allows children to again interact with the book and develop further language comprehension skills such as prediction and deduction skills such as "what will happen next? These forms of questions allow children to be more excited reading stories which can help them in the future when reading independently. Feb 21, Olivia rated it it was ok. The book uses rhyming to tell the story ' This is the bear who fell in the bin. This is the dog who pushed him in. The story is simple, it is about a bear who gets lost at a rubbish tip by accident and is rescued by a boy. Due to the simple story and the rhyming nature of the story, as well as its enga 'This is bear' by Sarah Hayes, is a nice rhyming story about a lost teddy bear. Due to the simple story and the rhyming nature of the story, as well as its engaging illustrations, I believe that it is suitable for children in EYFS to age 6. Mar 31, Kristine Hansen rated it liked it Shelves: kids-picture-book. What I liked best about this book was the instruction on how to use it with your kids. Valuable information that helps the parents take this beyond just a sit down and read out loud kind of thing. This is engaging with your child on many levels. The story itself is ok, the rhyme is perfect for the storyline. I think I had a reaction to a child going to the dump and digging in garbage for his bear. This series intrigues though, and it would be worth looking at the other titles available. This is a lovely little story or a bear that goes on a journey with its owner looking for him just behind. It uses rhyming words in the sentences, this appears to make the story more fun for the reader. The sentences are short and easy to read for children. The illustrations help to tell the story and are quite realistic. Mar 08, Stacy rated it really liked it Shelves: picture-book. This is the bear that has an amazing adventure thanks to a little help from the family dog. This book is a great book to read together because while the words are telling the story the pictures are also telling a story of there own. This Is a great book to show how the illustrations can help further a story along. Aug 22, Tanya rated it liked it Shelves: kidsbooks-3plus , books , children- s-literature , kidsbooks. There is mischief and the dog is not so kind, but the book is entertaining for a little one because of the suspense and the adventure. Iiked that the book included a guide at the beginning and end for how parents might read books with their child to develop a reader. So glad things ended right!!

Unlike the ursid bears whose fourth premolar has a more well-developed protoconid, an adaptation for shearing flesh, [32] the fourth premolar of spectacled bears has blunt lophs with three pulp cavities instead of two, and can have three roots instead of the two that characterize ursid bears. The musculature and tooth characteristics are designed to support the stresses of grinding and crushing vegetation. Besides the giant panda, the is perhaps the most herbivorous living bear species. prey is usually quite small, but these bears can prey on adult deer , llama Lama glama and domestic cattle Bos primigenius taurus and horses Equus ferus caballus. Due to fear of loss of stock, bears may be killed on sight. Mating may occur at almost any time of the year, but activity normally peaks in April and June, at the beginning of the wet season and corresponding with the peak of fruit-ripening. The mating pair are together for one to two weeks, during which they will copulate multiple times. Births usually occur in the dry season, between December and February. The gestation period is 5. The size of the litter has been positively correlated with both the weight of the female and the abundance and variety of food sources, particularly the degree to which fruiting is temporally predictable. The Andean bear is threatened due to poaching and habitat loss. Poaching might have several reasons: trophy hunting , pet trade , religious or magical beliefs, natural products trade and conflicts with humans. Trophy hunting of Andean bear was apparently popular during the 19th century in some rural areas of Latin-America. Tales regarding pet bears are also known from documents about the Ecuadorian aristocracy of that time. Religious or magical beliefs might be motivations for killing Andean bears, especially in places where bears are related to myths of disappearing women or kids, or where bear parts are related to traditional medicine or superstitions. In this context, the trade of bear parts might have commercial value. Their gall bladders appear to be valued in traditional Chinese medicine and can fetch a high price on the international market. Conflicts with humans, however, appear to be the most common cause of poaching in large portions of its distribution. It has been argued that attacks to cattle attributed to Andean bear are partly due to other predators. Raiding of crops can be frequent in areas with diminishing natural resources and extensive crops in former bear habitat, or when problematic individuals get used to human environments. The intensity of poaching can create ecological traps for Andean bears. That is, if bears are attracted to areas of high habitat quality that are also high in poaching risk. Perhaps the most epidemic problem for the species is extensive logging and farming, which has led to habitat loss for the largely tree-dependent bears. Impacts of climate changes on bear habitat and food sources are not fully understood, but might have potential negative impact in the near future. The IUCN has recommended the following courses for spectacled bear conservation: expansion and implementation of conservation land to prevent further development, greater species level research and monitoring of trends and threats, more concerted management of current conservation areas, stewardship programs for bears which engage local residents and the education of the public regarding spectacled bears, especially the benefits of conserving the species due to its effect on natural resources. National governments, NGOs and rural communities have made different commitments to conservation of this species along its distribution. Conservation actions in Venezuela date back to the early s, and have been based mostly on environmental education at several levels and the establishment of protected areas. The effort of several organisations has led to a widespread recognition of the andean bear in Venezuelan society, raising it as an emblematic species of conservation efforts in the country, and to the establishment of a year action plan. Legislation against bear hunting exists, but is rarely enforced. In the Spectacled Bear Conservation Society was established in Peru to study and protect the spectacled bear. The children's character Paddington Bear is a spectacled bear, famously from "darkest Peru". Fry bartered with the villagers to have the bear released, and it was taken to an enclosure in Machu Picchu. Fry's interest in the bears led to the follow-up documentary, Stephen Fry and the Spectacled Bears , and he also wrote and published his experiences in Rescuing the Spectacled Bear: A Peruvian Diary. In the BBC television programme Serious Andes , a team of eight teenagers built a prerelease enclosure for two spectacled bears before returning them to the wild.

The book had a lovely flow to it and uses rhyming throughout the book; This is the bear who went to the dump: and fell on the pile with a bit of a bump; it has lovely illustrations that go with the story and has speech bubbles within the pictures for extra reading. This would be a fun book to read to Foundation stage children, Nursery and Reception; using lots of different tones and voices to illustrate emotions as the bear gets lost sad and found again happy. It would be a great resource for KS1 children who are begining to learn about poetry. It is a lovely introduction to rhyming words, and children would be able to easily identify which words rhymed within the text. So a dog pushes the bear into the garbage on purpose. And it ends with the boy finding his bear and the dog getting a bone?! This book is filled with secrets, sneaky behavior and kids just going wherever they please with no consequences! To me, this just encourages children to behave in inappropriate habits. Not a "bad dog" nor does the dog apologize to the bear for what happened. Oh n Ugh! Oh no- he gets a bone out of the deal. Maybe h should toss toys in the garbage more often! And the boy traipsing through a dumpyard No WAY! Not safe at all! Nov 13, Chris rated it it was amazing Shelves: 1. This is a cute little story of a teddy after a mischievous dog pushes him in the bin and a little boys adventure to try and get his teddy bear back. Mainly written in rhyming couplets this book contains an attractive rhythm, which really makes a KS1 class want to hear more. My personal experience of using this book on the visualizer saw the class reading the comical speech bubbles included in the pictu This is a cute little story of a teddy after a mischievous dog pushes him in the bin and a little boys adventure to try and get his teddy bear back. My personal experience of using this book on the visualizer saw the class reading the comical speech bubbles included in the pictures and making the characters in the story more 3D. They found the interaction between the characters so enjoyable that most of the class used the speech bubbles as their favorite part of the book in their own book reviews. Getting the children to bring their own bears in to class further links the children to the story allowing children to relate to the events in the plot. A wide range of activities from simple tasks describing their own bears to longer extended activities creating adventures for their own bears can be introduced from this story. When introducing this story to my class, we were looking into materials in science, which allowed the class to be able to describe what the bear could feel like and even identify the different materials they could see at the dump. A great story to inspire, engage and motivate. May 01, Hugh Stuart rated it really liked it. Fantastically illustrated book about the adventures of an anthropomorphic teddy bear. A dog called Fred drops him in the bin and much to his chagrin he ends up at the dump. His upset owner travels to the dump and he is found. I read 'This is the Bear' as part of my goal to read all Childrens books you should read befor you grow up. I read this with my 3year old and we laughed and laughed. The story is simple and rhyming. There are a few words that need to be explained,but the pictures are really funny. There should be more children's books about garbage dumps.
