My Project

I teach 4th grade Language Arts in a small rural area. My students are eager to learn about new people and places. This book series would give my students the opportunity to read biographies and about events from history.

This book series will introduce my students to historical nonfiction by highlighting historically significant people, places, and events in great detail.

There's many learning activities that can take place with these reading as well. I also plan on giving each book a barcode and using the scanner to check the books in and out. Thank you!
