This is a biography on our first President George Washington written by Laurie Calkhoven. I think this book would be great for any history class. This book gives you insights to how he helped to win Americas freedom, but it also talks about how he was not always the military guy. He was a quiet peaceful farmer. #ucflae3414F19

kradebaugh UDL 3.1 Activate and supply background knowledge and 2.1 Clarify vocabulary and symbols. ESOL I would break the text down and associate pictures with words and pair with a partner. 5y
Jgolub13 President Washington lived a very interesting life. I wanted any biography of him to use in my future classroom. I will have to check this out. 5y
KristenScala I love biography books and I think they‘re a great asset to a classroom library especially since students should learn about people of our past! 5y
DrSpalding Of course, this biography would work quite well during a unit on the presidents during your social studies instruction. 5y
