Calling all farmgirls!!! I am looking for your help to add an important component to my classroom. I want to build a section in my classroom library that includes information about our 50 states!
I want to do this for a couple of reasons. First I want to have nonfiction information available to help my students become more skilled in that particular area of language arts. Second I would like to have these things available to them as added resources in a research project on the 50 states!
If you would also like to include items or information on your part of our country, that would be greatly appreciated!
Please email me if you are interested and to get mailing information!
Thanks sooo much for your help in the future of our kiddos!

HI Robin!
I will gather some goodies and put it together for you.
Are you looking for pamphlets and such on things to do/points of interest in the area etc? I don't want to send you stuff you cant use- so let me know what "type" of things you are looking for and I will get to work on it for ya!
Hugs,
