This book is a RF picture book about a young girl and her dog who set out to create the most magnificent thing but the result is not what she had in mind. I believe that this book would best be used in the classroom as an IR.

Viviannef Ramzie! I‘ve read this story before and I love your idea of having students read this as an IR to build fluency :) love your resource, I found a pdf page on the website of so many ways to incorporate this book in your class! Great post 4y
DrSpalding National education Association is a quality resource. While independent reading could work, reading aloud the story and facilitating connections would also be wise. 4y

Emma_Barcena This looks like such a funny story, I‘m sure students would enjoy reading independently as well! I‘ve never heard of this, but from looking at the cover I‘m sure I would be giggling! Your UDL and EL principles seem very applicable! 4y
DrSpalding Remember that science fiction is often rooted in scientific principles. This is more so modern fantasy. Reading is fundamental is an excellent resource and you could certainly use these ideas after an effective read aloud. Your English learner and universal design principles align nicely. 4y

DrSpalding I‘m curious about partner reading with this particular book. This is a wordless picture book meaning there are few to no words and just gorgeous award-winning illustrations. Would you have the partners tell the story using the pictures? 4y

Viviannef We shouldn‘t judge a book by its cover, but how cute is his imaginary friend!?!! I had never heard of this story before, so I have to read it! Great resource! There‘s so many fun activities to do 4y
DrSpalding Storytelling could work nicely for this particular book. Remember that you want your resource to complement the teaching strategy you selected. If your resource assists effective read aloud‘s then you would want to cite read aloud as your teaching strategy. 4y

DrSpalding While this is non-fiction… It is actually a biography highlighting the lives of 18 women. Her series of books would work well in social studies units about historical figures. Reading rockets is an excellent resource. 4y

CameoD I really love this book! Read it when I was little and still remember the teddy bear my teacher used:) also I think your resource is awesome! 4y
DrSpalding Again, your resources and teaching strategy don‘t quite align. Just listing the English learner and universal design principles don‘t show how you would connect all of these elements. A little more detail is needed. 4y
RamzieM @DrSpalding this was my mistake the resource is actually Compatible for IR. 4y

JoslynB I saw this book and fell in love with the concept immediately. It is nice to see someone choose it. This book is great to incorporate with a social study lesson. It also helps to introduce important historical figures outside of the typical curriculum that can expand student's knowledge of significant accomplishments. I think your EL principle will work well when discussing it in class. 4y
DrSpalding You need to truly think about ways to incorporate these books beyond independent reading. There are many other teaching strategies that would work better with the quality book selections you have made. See previous comments. 4y

DrSpalding You now know the importance of using poetry in your classroom! You could read a poem a day. Anthologies like this will enhance vocabulary and they are short pieces of text that could work well with reluctant readers. 4y
