My Project

I am working to build my classrooms supplemental texts and materials for different units we will be studying. We are soon studying the American Revolution and these texts will help my students dive deeper into their learning of that time period.

Each unit highly encourages students to do independent reading to supplement their learning and I know being able to read books about the topic we are studying will bring them a lot of excitement and enjoyment!

We are excited to bring social studies and reading together through this unit!
