My Project

My third grade students are curious, compassionate, and eager to learn about the world around them. We need new class sets of books to discuss important aspects of history: women's rights, civil rights, and Native American history. These books will serve as the foundation for literature circles, fostering collaborative learning and in-depth discussions.

Introducing young learners to these critical historical themes is essential to fostering historical awareness, and to develop empathy and critical thinking.

By integrating these chapter books into our curriculum my students will be able to engage with complex texts, and have shared topics to encourage discussions during literature circles. I hope to expose my students to diverse perspectives to build an inclusive classroom environment and to guide students in examining historical contexts and their relevance today.

Incorporating these books will not only enhance our students' reading skills, but also deepen their understanding of significant historical events and social justice themes. Your support in providing these resources will make a profound impact on the educational journey of many students for years to come!
