To close out Uganda for #foodandlit2023, we read A Good Trade and Beatrice‘s Goat. Both books center around the poverty and lack of education in Uganda, and both have white saviors. After reading these books, my daughter and I made paper beads while going on a Google Earth tour of Uganda. My oh my… sooo many churches.

This wonderful IR, NF, NYT Best Selling picture book talks about the story of a real little girl named Beatrice. She lives in Uganda with her mom and many siblings. One day, her family is gifted a goat, named Mugisa. Mugisa brings so many blessing to the family: milk, extra income, love, and companionship. Beatrice takes care of Mugisa the best she can, eventually earning enough money to attend school for the first time!

MFlowers This book is great to have on your library shelf for independent reading; however, you could use it as a RA or S book to include all of your students in the activities. Using the following url, you can help achieve UDL principle 2.4 (promote understanding across language) and EL strategy 6 (continually monitor students' comprehension).

MFlowers By diving deep into the story, characters, and setting, you are deepening the understanding and comprehension of your students. #ucflae3414sp21 (edited) 4y
DrSpalding If Beatrice is a real girl then this would be considered a biography which does fall under non-fiction however to be specific, biography would be the correct genre. Another helpful FDOE website resource. Again this could be used in social studies instruction. 4y
