My Project

I had the amazing experience of visiting some Revolutionary War sites this summer. I want to bring some of that amazing insight and learning back to them. I took hundreds of pictures that I will share with them, but I want to put something concrete into their hands.

What better way to teach them about Revolutionary War heroes and events than through picture books!

I want to give them opportunities to read and study about the Revolutionary War. Our school library didn't have many books about the war to share with my students, so I would love to expand my own classroom library to include these kinds of books.

I attended a great training this summer that used whiteboards around the classroom. So, I would like to try this with my students using the whiteboard on the easel.
