About This Lesson
On her way to the park, an African American girl sizes up herself and the world around her. The lesson plan from Lee & Low Books includes ideas for providing a supportive introduction to the book and preparing children to read the story, suggestions for observing reading behaviors, discussion questions, ELL support, and interdisciplinary activities.
This lesson is very detailed and focuses on basic foundational skills for kindergarten students. The lesson provides specific questions for teachers to ask before, during and after reading. It also provides strategies to use for struggling readers.
