My Project
This project will give my students meaningful interactions with STEM-forward, non-fiction text--including fact books, a very cool series: "What's the Point of Science?" and "What's the Point of Philosophy?", and some very engaging history graphic novels. One of my students also requested the 2024 Guinness World Records--so, of course I had to add that too.
My students love reading, and to stay excited about reading takes books.
This project of over 30 books will be just the ticket to keep us excited. I know that the fact books and graphic novels will be very engaging to my students and get them to think more about science and history. I can't wait!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
