My Project

As we prepare for the second half of the school year we are hoping to enhance our classroom library and fill it with meaningful texts that are relevant to our final three units. These units include explorations into how the government works, art and artist, and immigration. These books will help students dive into various stories to help them better understand each of these concepts and learn about a variety of different people, places, and things. These texts are specifically designed for kids and will allow them to practice their ever-growing foundational reading skills.
