Civics Summer Reading for the 8th Grade

  • This is the second book that all 8th graders must read.  Taking an active role in your community is key to being a member of a Democracy.  In Civics, not only will our students be taught about the formation of modern government, they will also be encouraged to get involved with causes that move them.  In this book, Be a Changemaker, students will be introduced to Civic action.
