Books For Research and Activism Projects
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Liz's classroom raised $350
This project is fully funded
My Project
For the coming school year, my students will encounter new literacy units. These units will center on research about topics such as insects and standing up for your rights. I would like to vamp up my nonfiction library to offer a variety of texts for my students to gather information.
One thing I can count on is my students' love for books, I want to provide them with a variety of texts to use for their research projects on Activism and Insects! Please help me give my students some new books.
