I really like how this book isn't just about injustice. It's also about believing what they tell you to believe and investigating to find out what's true.

“The same pipe fed both fountains! Two fountains. Two signs. But the same water in both.” This HF book of White Water is inspired by a true and upsetting story. To think about our country separating water fountains because of color and all the hate that was shown and still can be shown today is hard to comprehend. #UCFLAE3414SP20

VictoriaG This story is a great reminder that there is the same water in both fountains and using this as a RA in a classroom is a great way to discuss these issues. UDL 3.3-Guide information processing and visualization. ESOL- Link lesson topic to students‘ prior knowledge.

DrSpalding Be sure your post includes a bit more of what the resource has to offer. Nice alignment to English learner and universal design principles. Looks like a wonderful read aloud to include in social studies instruction. 4y
