Book of the Week: Why Are Animals Blue?
Educators
often ask me which of my books would work best in their classroom. So this
year, I’ve decided to feature a book each week and highlight related teaching
materials and strategies.
The
clear, simple text and stunning photos in
Why Are Animals Blue? are perfect
for teaching students about animal adaptations. You can start your lesson with a fun Readers Theater script that
I’ve written to accompany the book. I’ve also created a Teachers Guide that makes connections to a wide variety of NGSS and Common Core
standards.
For an innovative Reading Buddy experience, try a
same-grade-level pairing in which an emergent reader shares Blue Animals (two simple words per page)
and a more advanced reader shares Why Are Animals Blue?
I
guarantee great results.
