Literacy Connection:
These Colors Are Bananas by Tamara Shopsin & Jason Fulford, published in association with the Whitney Museum of American Art, is inspired by how artists see the world differently. It gives a fresh look in how to talk with preschoolers about color naming, observing details, and making assumptions about what colors things in the natural world must be. What kind of difference can you make in the world by letting go of the preconceived notions of colors?
