katiehamlin I think this book would be good as a RA in a third grade classroom because the illustrations are so detailed and point out different parts of the caterpillars and butterflies, so I think it‘s good to have the teacher read it and point out these aspects as they go through it. 4y

katiehamlin The EL strategy I would use with this book is 14, simplify your speech by making it slower and redundant. This is important with a RA because the students will have a more difficult time comprehending the book is the teacher isn‘t speaking clearly. 4y

katiehamlin The UDL principle I would use with this book is 2.1, clarify vocabulary and symbols. This is important for a NF book like this because the life cycle of a butterfly has so much important vocabulary that defines many of the steps of it.

katiehamlin Here is a link to a resource I would use with this book. https://binged.it/32PoWyQ It‘s a cute animated video that goes through the life cycle of a butterfly. I think on top of having the book to read to the children, it‘s also important to have this visual for them as well to reinforce the information they just had read to them.
