A Window into History

This is an excellent resource for objectives-based education.

These books both fiction and nonfiction combined with highly appropriate activities and projects build themes around community history and cultural or social differences. In addition the variety of cultural backgrounds in the titles makes A Window into History especially valuable in programs that emphasize multicultural issues. Recommended teacher resource for grades 3-8.
