This Biography book I chose because it touches me personally. How can a person like Helen be so strong and be a roll model. I would use it Women history month.

This Fiction story won my heart. I showed the video to 8th graders and addressed that there are two sides to a story. I would use this book for storytelling. I enjoyed preparing this storytelling.

Outstanding NF story about a young girl that a very young age looses her hearing.

Zebra Wall | Kevin Henkes

This RF story reminded me of myself when having my fifth ?"Okay, troops," Mr. Vorlob said, scratching his head. "I've got a project that needs attention." The dad was referring a wall that needed to be painted for the new baby on the way. This is a Lot circle story www.scholastic.com/teachers/lesson-plans/teaching-content/zebra-wall-discussion-guide/

Beneath | Roland Smith
post image

This F story is about a community of underground dwellers in New York City and the two brothers who get entwined in their lives. By the conclusion, we can assume that the author intends to write a sequel. Also, really appreciated the classic literature touches and nods throughout the book. I would use this story for predictions..what would happen next in the story..

This is a fary tale picture book which swept me away with his comic way of picking his daily clothes thinking of himself as the best dressed emperor of them all times. I would use this book for a play in drama class ...http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/story/entertainment/arts/2017/11/22/childrens-show-takes-stage-riverwalk

She Persisted | Chelsea Clinton

She Persisted is a Biography picture book in which Chelsea Clinton did an amazing job compiling of these 13 American Women Who Changed the World. women's accomplishments and put it into this book. I would definitely use this book in history class to show how feminism doesn't affect women's goals https://www.bustle.com/p/chelsea-clinton-has-announced-international-companion-t...

This RF book transported me to the place I was raised until I was 10 yrs old. I lived in amazing tropical forest which I miss dearly...Chapter 2 (The Woods People) has the description of the Niche and I left like I was part of the story....This book really help student identify the science content they are been taught which for my future lesson I would use it when teaching how algae are created...

CWalters Thanks for sharing your text to self connection with this book. I'm SO glad Dr. V includes it in her course! #UCFWalterslit 7y
TanishaRosa I agree, this book is certainly rich on science content. The character's stories were also very interesting, and the mystery of Dajun's whereabouts as well. #UCFWalterslit 7y
