The coolest thing about this book is that each page has cut outs where the pages behind it will be incorporated to the page before.

Green by Laura Vaccaro Seeger is a Caldecott winning book that was published in 2012. This book is about all different colors of green. Each page has a different shade of green and it is represented by something that is green. There is a green fern, faded green, slow green, all green, etc. This is more of a picture book that has cut outs on each page for the kids to interact with.

Green is a nonfiction picture book illustrated & written by Laura Vaccaro Seeger that teachers students different shades of green in nature, with cut-out shapes linking the different scenes. This Caldecott Award winner would best be taught through IR because students could compare different colors and what the colors represent to them as they read. #ucflae3414f17 http://www.theclassroombookshelf.com/2012/05/green/ (ways for colors to be taught)

hannahl ESOL: 4 because making connections to what the color green is for the children will make it easier for them to understand. (Example: green is a tree) UDL: 1.3- to provide visuals of what the color green is and for example you could show them what grass is and explain that's the color green. 7y
MichelleL Your ESOL and UDL fit well with the lesson 7y

AJones I recently worked in a kindergarten class and my teacher had the entire set. 🌈 Each page has cut outs and descriptive words. . . great teaching strategies for younger students and ELLs. 7y
DrSpalding How exciting to see the entire set in a classroom. When teaching about colors in kindergarten, this would be an excellent addition to your classroom library. Nice post. 7y
