New York Schools’ Common Core Curriculum adopting The Most Beautiful Roof in the World

• Awards & Accolades

Exciting News about New York schools adopting Chris's and my rainforest book The Most Beautiful Roof in the World for their Common core Curriculum.

In this unit students will continue to build new reading skills and learn about the process scientists use to conduct research in the natural world through a close-read of The Most Beautiful Roof in the World: Exploring the Rainforest Canopy (L1160), by Kathryn Lasky, with photographs by Christopher G. Knight. They will take an in-depth view of how one scientist, Meg Lowman, became interested in her chosen career, created new ways to study the natural world, and communicates her findings to others.
