I would like to increase my library by adding more copies of A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park. The book tells the stories of a fictional character named Nya who lives in Southern Sudan, Africa in 2008 and a real boy, Salva who lived during the Sudanese Civil War Southern Sudan. Salva is a “Lost Boy of Sudan,” who returns to Africa to help all tribes get water. As students read this book they discuss how culture, time, and place influence the development of identity. Your donation will help me serve 100 students this year and many more in the following years. Please help me make an impact on the students’ learning. Already, students have engaged in deep conversations about “The Lost Boys of Sudan,” if everyone had their own book to use, a more engaging conversation could take place. My goal is to help students develop connections to their own life with the work we do in class. I have 30 books but would like to have enough books for each student to take home. This will help provide the full experience while we work with the book. With the supplies on the list, students will create an interactive notebook that contains literature concepts, pictures and journal entries. My students enjoyed the book but I had to do it one class at a time. I have several students who wanted to read the book even though their class was not assigned the book. Funding my project helps to make sure all my students have access to the same materials at the same time.
