This Fourth Grade Level Q reader tells the story of Juneteenth – a celebration at the end of the Civil War. From this text, your students will learn about the oldest known celebration of the ending of slavery in the U.S. The book comes with several fun companion activity pages which reinforce literacy skills involving reading, language, spelling and writing. Specific concepts, skills, sight words, and vocabulary targeted in the book are listed on the first page of the story. This book is one of the 450+ original leveled books which I wrote to incorporate the Fountas and Pinnell leveled vocabulary, Rebecca Sitton spelling words, and common curriculum standards for grades K–6 in the United States.
