5/7/2014 Looking Ahead to Summer, and What is Juneteenth?

The school year may be winding down in many classrooms, but for a lot of students and educators, summer means summer school!


Prepare for the summer months ahead with my 4th grade Level Q reader What is Juneteenth? now a FREE download to assess the quality of my work.  This reader tells the story of Juneteenth - a day celebrated at the end of the Civil War. From this story, your students will learn about the oldest known celebration of the ending of slavery in the U.S.


The book comes with companion worksheets which reinforce literacy skills involving reading, language, spelling and writing. Specific concepts, skills and vocabulary targeted in the book are listed on the first page of the story.

You can also learn more about Juneteenth and find more free Juneteenth Education resources from the National Juneteenth Observation Foundation
