  • Seuss' Holocaust!

    Funded Aug 22, 2022

    Thank you so much for supporting the students in my classroom and the others around me. We shared these resources across four classrooms. The students enjoyed looking at the Holocaust through a different lens - the eyes of a children's book. This was a generous donation that helped my students succeed!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Cook

  • Creating Bibliophiles

    Funded Jul 19, 2022

    Thank you so much for supporting us. Your kindness and generosity gave us the opportunity to enjoy reading. We especially enjoyed reading about the holocaust with a fictional perspective. The fantasy books allowed us to read for pure delight. The books have been greatly appreciated. We appreciate your benevolent generosity!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Cook

This class set of books will assist my students with acquiring knowledge about history in an enjoyable fashion. My students love to read books. They learn a lot more when they read something set in history but fictionalized to tantalize the imagination. We have two specific units that these books will supplement. First, the students will be learning about the American Revolution and Fever 1793 expands on the knowledge to show the devastation of what is occurring in America during this time period. Laura Halse Anderson, the author, does a fantastic job of researching the time period when she writes her books so that the history in the fiction is real. Reading this book, will encourage my students to verify the factual information of that time in history. The second unit is World War II. The students will read the drama The Diary of Anne Frank. They need a supplement to this play that is not overused and encourages a growth mindset with rigor involved. The Devil's Arithmetic by Jane Yolen provides this opportunity. The students will compare and contrast the literature and the media to understand where and how authors bring history to life in writing and viewing materials. With your assistance, I will be able to provide rich learning opportunities for my students. Thank you for your help!
