Vegetables
Eating healthy foods is essential for students’
development, and that includes lots of fruits and
vegetables! Vegetables introduces students to a wide
variety of foods from this food group--some they might
already know, and some they might not! Colorful
photographs and a repetitive text structure support early
emergent readers. This book can also be used to teach
students how to connect to prior knowledge as well as to
classify information to better understand text.
