My students are the most creative and curious kids around.
They love learning and these books will help them read more about slavery and segregation and learn from our past mistakes.
The slavery and segregation books will be used during our social studies unit and also be available for kids to read independently.
The phonics and morphology books will help me teach kids to be better readers and writers.
All of the resources will directly impact student learning. Having a rich classroom library allows students access to material they may not have access to at home.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
