Welcome, teachers! Thank you for sharing either of my books with your students. Perhaps you want to supplement a unit on immigration or holiday traditions, or to explore slavery through art, science, math, music or language arts. Here are ways to expand on both books. If you come up with your own ways to use either book in your teaching, I'd love to hear from you!
