Malcolm X on DonorsChoose.org

Because of a recommendation from a colleague AND because of the lack of resources and materials in my school and district ($1.4 million shortfall already in this fiscal year), I have decided to apply for stuff on DonorsChoose.org.  It’s a website that hooks up teachers with people and organizations that want to donate money to help students learn.  Here’s my proposal for a set of Autobiography of Malcolm X books.  My fingers are crossed.  The books are for my US History II class and although that particular class has had its ups and downs over the year, there are a lot of good kids there.  I’d love to do a reading of Malcolm’s life as a long-term project.  It’s something that I’ve wanted to do for a while.  So, again, fingers are crossed.
