This book is a great RA book it shares the life of many Cubs and lions and other animals they encounter.
This book fits UDL 3.1 AND ESOL 9
A source I found that would be great is just using a chart before you read and after you read to see the knowledge gained on lions .

This is a Corretta Scott King award winning 2021 book where a little girl compares her skin color , eyes , laughter to many other beautiful things that bring joy into her life. This book is great for students that need more self love and positive speech about themselves and how they view themselves. This is a great RA book and some EL strategies that could be used are 3 since the book is all about self love , and UDL 4.1 and 4.2 #ucflae3414sp21

Outside In | Deborah Underwood

Caldecott 2021 book it shows us all the wonderful things that “outside” shows while we‘re inside us such as bird, the sun , and the rain . It also tells us when you wake up and go to bed . All the wonderful things that outside brings to us even inside. The book could be used as a RA and the UDL can be 7.2 using ESOL 22 and 30 since this is a picture book you can have students create visuals of their favorite things to do outside. #ucflae3414sp21

DrSpalding Angela, you completed 10 posts as required. Go back and look at the rubric to see how you should cite the English learner strategies and universal design principles. Remember that you only need one of each and that you must explain how they align to your resource/teaching strategy. You must cite the number and the verbiage for EL/UDL. 3y

The word collector is a book about Jerome a boy that loves to collect words and discovers the magic of words. I chose this book because while reading to students they are also able to learn new vocabulary words.
