Help me give my students fiction and nonfiction books to engage them in learning about American History.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Johnson's classroom raised $330

This project is fully funded

My Students

This class is passionate about learning. They are excited to discover the world around them, grow in math, read new books, and learn all about US History this year.

These students are eager to learn new things and are looking for a challenge.

They are thrilled every time they learn something new and are excited to share what they learn with each other. We have a classroom community in which students build each other up and help each other achieve goals.

My Project

My greatest goal is to make sure that every student finds something that they love to read. My students this year are so excited about learning and studying American History. They love historical fiction and nonfiction books. I want to build on their interests by getting them books to read that are about what we are studying.

Having books that connect to what we are learning in class will help my students to have a deeper understand and love for history.

I am confident that these books will enhance their learning experience. Loving reading is something that can stay with them for years to come.
