A Color Of His Own Activities

The story “A Color of His Own” by Leo Lionni has a great message about loving yourself just the way you are. I love to read this story in the spring when we discuss different animal groups in science and we are learning about amphibians. A Color of His Own activities including several comprehension strategies that you can use and differentiate for all your learners. There are also writing, word work activities as well as a few fun math games too. Students will have fun completing the chameleon craft.  I have also included 2 letters per page to make a fun bulletin board display.
