I am requesting a history text so the 5th and 6th graders I teach will have the resources to study and learn about their heritage. The students love studying history and the lives of those that lived before them, but we lack textual resources. The importance of learning American history is highly underrated in elementary school.
I believe our children need to know the good and the bad decisions that have been made in order to guide them in the future: They are the next generation of leaders. They must have a solid understanding of how our country started and why, how the Constitution came to be, and what it takes to maintain a democracy.
I believe the students will be inspired by learning about the lives of those who lived before, who overcame struggles and amazing hardships and continued on to lead and succeed.
