pickIt Never, Ever Snows in Florida by Amy Sweezey is a science fiction picture book I will use for a read aloud in my classroom. This is a story about AJ and how he wants nothing more than to build a snowman but he lives and Florida and believes that it never snows in Florida. How ever has it ever snowed in Florida? This will be perfect to use before a lesson about climate especially focusing on Flordia‘s climate.

DominiqueL This is really cool! All the students could make text-to-self connections about it snowing in Florida, and you could even ask the students who all has been in snow and have them give their personal accounts of the climate and weather difference here in Florida to where they were in snow. 7y
laurie_jayy Hey! This is a great way to talk about climate. Like Dominique said above, all students could make text-to-self connections because indeed it never snows in the sunshine state #thanksmothernature 🙄 I‘m going to add this to my booklist because I totally want to read it :) 7y
