My Project

Please help give my students at our school some new books. These books will allow them to use their decoding skills to decode unfamiliar words. The book The Watsons go to Birmingham will allow my students to learn about what life was like before the Civil Rights Movement for African Americans in the United States.

My students love books and show a desire to want to read different genres of books.

These books would allow my students to complete additional novel studies while improving their reading skills.

Thank you, in advance for all of your support.
