Author Study
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Johnson's classroom raised $190
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Author studies can help students develop a variety of skills and interests, including critical thinking, and text-to-text connections. I want to have an author for my students to listen to as many books by the same author as possible. Tomie dePaola is a beloved author who creates lovely stories and beautiful pictures. We have a few books from him in our classroom but would love to read more of these books. Thank you for helping my class enjoy the love of reading and comparing Authors to learn more about their craft.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
