Books to Help Kindergarten Learn Social Studies and Science

My students need science and social studies readers that will help them learn at their own reading level.

My Students

I teach kindergarten to a wonderful and exciting group of boys and girls in a Title One school who love to come to school each day to learn the new things I have to teach them.

I work extremely hard to ensure that my students have everything they need to make their school year a fun, exciting, and productive school year.

Reading is very important and my students enjoy it when they realize that they can open a book and read it all by themselves. I want to ensure that my students are exposed to many different forms of books. Books that teach them about the important science, math and social studies curriculum throughout the school year are necessary.

My Project

Unfortunately, our school is not able to supply teachers with necessary and crucial books that my students so desperately need. My students need more books, on their level of reading, to learn from throughout the school year. Non fiction reader levels A-D will help my students learn their social studies, math, and science curriculum as they are learning to become better readers.

Please, help my students obtain the necessary books that they need to help them grow throughout the school year as readers through great and exciting social studies, math, and science non fiction books.
