Hes quick. Hes silent. He has five rows of deadly teeth. Chomp! Meet the sharkthe fish who ruled the deep before dinosaurs roamed the Earth! This fish has soft cartilage so he can glide, twist, and turn before his prey can say "gulp!" He can smell a single drop of blood in 25 million drops of ocean. He can feel electricity given off by his prey. He will lose and replace more than 10,000 teeth in his lifetime. Cool photos bring kids into the sharks world. Fun facts go deep into the sharks scary science.

This is a perfect NF RA for your class when talking about animals or marine life! It‘s all about Sharks (as in the title). https://www.sharks-world.com/facts_about_sharks/ this is a great website to share more facts about sharks for your classroom. #ucflae3414su19 UDL: 1.1, 4.2 ESOL: 17

Macker11 I think it‘s great to use these NF books to portray information to our students and they are able to enjoy the facts with such great visuals as well! 5y
Dylanburgett Looks like a great read! 5y
jmartucci This would be great for a science lesson! And kids always love sharks, so this would be interesting for them! 5y
Stephanie5 I think that boys would really appreciate the book much more and would be a great time to also incorporate the food chain in the ocean. 5y
DrSpalding This would make for a good read aloud during science instruction! We teach about the oceans in second grade. On each post, you were supposed to elaborate on your universal design and English learner strategies. Same comment for all posts. 5y

Genre: NF. Teaching Strategy: IR. Learn about sharks with colorful chilling images. Great for students that love sharks and other animals form the sea. https://www.rif.org/literacy-central/criss-cross/national-geographic-readers-sha... #UCFSU19 UDL: 3.1 EL: use information gap activities (sharing pieces of information to solve problems).

raqueldonna Such a great genre & subject choice, I bet lots of kids are fascinated with sharks & would love to read something like this! You could have kids do a "scavenger hunt" & search for facts within the text or just provide this for IR 5y
Alexisjordan5 This is a great book to have in the classroom. Especially living in Florida, students should have access to information about the sharks that swim in the oceans around us! 5y

This NF book by Anne Schneider is an exciting book for beginner readers! This would be a great IR for students. The mix of fun facts and super colorful photos will make students super interested in learning about Sharks. This can be a great introduction to a lesson plan about sharks! A lesson plan that would be great with this book is http://mypages.iit.edu/~smile/ #lae3414sp19

taywise393 It‘s very entertaining and engaging for all students! The UDL that matches with this is 3.1, 3.3, and 2.1. All of these are with the way the information is represented. The ELL accommodations are 2 and 10. They are both about small groups which is something that is important for ELL students! 5y
DrSpalding I said you don‘t get better than National Geographic! Excellent choice for nonfiction Taylor. 5y
ha_kaye This would be a great complimentary text to a book with sharks and oh boy are there A LOT of them (; 5y

Sharks is a NF( non fiction) book written by Anne Schreiber with fun facts about different kinds of sharks. I would love to include this book in my class as a IR (independent reading) for the students. There are so many things students can learn just from reading this small book about sharks. A lesson I would include with this is https://www.nationalgeographic.org/activity/shark-teeth/. This website provides the students with the opportunity to ⬇️

JessicaC match the different kinds of sharks to the different types of teeth they have. This would be put into effect with UDL 6.3, facilitate managing information and resources. Students would really enjoy learning science with a book that has so many visuals along with a matching game based off the teeth of the sharks! #UCFLAE3413SP18 6y
ambera I wasn't a fan of how they made the shark look "scary" on the cover because it gives people the wrong idea and causes unnecessary fear, however, once I looked at the activity it made a little more sense since The activity is about the shark's teeth. 6y
