Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

Reading is fundamental for my students! I teach Science and Language Arts to 6th grade students who are primarily 2nd language learners and about 85% of them participate in the school's free and/or reduced lunch program.

Students need to read in order to succeed. My classroom library is in need of a makeover with fresh new novels that will grab the attention of readers at all levels.

In revamping the classroom library, I hope to incorporate graphic novels as a way to get even my most reluctant readers to read and enjoy reading. I also hope to use these graphic novels, such as "Bone: Out from Boneville" to engage students in thinking critically about the plot and character and to get them writing about it as well.

Your assistance will help to turn my out-of-date classroom library into a library that is rich with different genres and encourage all students to read and enjoy reading.
