10 books presidents

So I just realized that this did not publish. I am sorry about that.



This is a cute book. This book would let the students see what it might be like to run as president. This shows the process of what its is like as well as being a book a child would be able to understand.


This is a good book for students to get their imaginations going. It would open up the topic of who could run for president and who they think would be good at it.

This book is a book with facts on the presidents. This can teach the students things they may not have known yet.
Ken Jennings Junior Genius Guides U.S. Presidents
"With this book about U.S. Presidents, you’ll become an expert and wow your friends and teachers with clever facts: Did you know that Abraham Lincoln made Thanksgiving a national holiday? Or that Jefferson introduced the first French fries at a fancy state dinner? With great illustrations, cool trivia, and fun quizzes to test your knowledge, this patriotic genius guide will have you on your way to whiz-kid status in no time!"

This is a book that can really get the students interested. It is from the viewpoint of who dogs which would make it fun. This will help the students learn about the election process.

In this book grace learns that there has not been a woman president. She plans to be the first, In the book she runs in a mock election. This would be a great thing for students to try and be a part of.

This book would be good for elementary school level. This is a book about a class president election. This show what the kids will go through and that even if you do not win you can still make school a better place.
 
This is a god book that focuses on the topic of elections. This shows the process as well. This book wold be more for older students.

THis wold be a fun book for the students. It is more like a comic book than a book. This book explains what the presidents actually do and what their daily life would be like.

Overview of class

This class this summer was better than I had thought that it would be. I was not so excited about having to take a summer class because I just wanted to take a brake and just have fun. With that being said I also want to say that I really enjoyed this class. I have learned a lot of new things as well as built on my confidence on making lesson plans. I can not say that reading over the mic was a total success but that will come eventually. I liked learning new ways of being able to help my students such as the honey bee meetings with the students. I can not say that I have a favorite lesson from my unit because they would all be fun and be a great way to see the students show who they are and how they think. As this process continues and I start to teach I plan on using all I have learned to make my teaching better as well as help the students in a way that I would not have been able to otherwise.
