Being not only the school librarian, but also the writing and social studies teacher affords me great opportunities to collaborate with myself on curriculum regularly, like this one! Author Howard Coffin visited grade 3-6 students to talk about Vermont's role in the Civil War. He spoke for about 45 minutes to a captive audience and was impressed with their background knowledge and questions. Did you know it was Vermont who helped win the Battle of Gettysburg and turn the war in favor of the union? Go Vermont and thanks to Mr. Coffin for his visit!
