My Project

Help me give my students the adventures that can only be taken through books.

Adventures to far away countries, adventures to mystical towns, adventures of being a character in a text, and the ability to go back in time can only be taken through reading.

Through the integration of social studies text in ELA , students will focus on the concepts taught in Social Studies, concentrate on language arts skills, all while making their learning more powerful.

In addition, I want to create book clubs that concentrate on real world events, past and present, so that students can build their knowledge of history, while immersing themselves in literacy language, building their teamwork skills, and their love of reading.

Ms. Gamble will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 2.
