My Project

My fourth grade students will be learning about the American Revolution. I would love to bring history to life for them with a wonderful selection of novels and picture books.

Students will read and analyze these texts I'm requesting to build background knowledge of this important time in history.

We will use these books to cover many literacy and Social Studies skills. At the end of the unit, students will complete a project to answer the question: If you lived during colonial times, would you have supported the American Revolution? Why or why not? It is so important to me that students read quality texts with multiple perspectives from this time period. Thank you for believing in my students and supporting this project.
