My Project

Hello fellow nonfiction fans! Please help me improve my library with nonfiction books that will not only improve comprehension skills, but teach students about important people, events, and topics.

My goals for this project are to assign students these books to read independently or in small groups and then "teach" the rest of us all about their topics!

My students LOVE fiction, but I really want them to enjoy and appreciate nonfiction as well! My students are wonderful, curious children who could really benefit from this project. They are thirsty for information on history, science, and geography, and this would be amazing for them.

Ms. Kathy will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by May 13.
