United States Books for My Students

Help me give my students nonfiction books to help them learn about the United States!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Hoffman's classroom raised $783

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students have been learning the states of the United States. We have been working on learning how to find states when given latitude and longitude coordinates. Students have been working on recognizing the shapes of states and what they are called, where they are located and more! Students who have been able to show that they are learning where states are located are now working on knowing those states capitals.

With these books students will be able to learn more about each state in depth.

It may help them recognize special things about each state to help them remember where the states are located and important information about each state.

My students take pride in our classroom. They treat books with respect and take care of them. These books will last for many years to come. We would be grateful for any donation you can make to our class!
