Enjoy books of photographs and about photography in conjunction for student independent reading in conjunction with art classes or in science as you learn about light and the spectrum. This list includes nonfiction about light and how it works. The interest levels are predominantly elementary and middle school but include selections for more able readers. CurriConnects thematic book lists include ISBN numbers for ordering or searching, interest grade levels, ESL levels and Lexiles''''''® to match student independent reading levels to challenge, not frustrate. For more on text complexity and Lexiles'''''®, see this information from the Lexile Framework. Don't miss other CurriConnects themes being added regularly. If your library does not have the books, try interlibrary loan!

In the Classroom

Have students choose a book they can connect to your light unit in science, to art projects, or simply a book of interest. Extend the experience by having them collect their own photographs as examples of the concepts they learn. Transform and share projects using one of these reviewed presentation tools from the TeachersFirst Edge. Some tool suggestions are (click on the tool name to access the review): slides, Animatron, MoocNote, and Desygner. The non-fiction selections offer possible informational texts to practice Common Core science literacy skills.
