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.

My Students

When beginning to read some students find reading to be overwhelming and they become frustrated. With a listening center, my students will learn to love reading through listening to the books.

I have a diverse group of students who are excited to learn.

They come from different learning situations at home. Many of the students need opportunities to work independently. My students are eager to learn about all subjects, but the reading materials are often to difficult to read.

My Project

I want my students to be successful in their future lives. Reading is the building block for learning. Reading can open the world to students without leaving the room. My students will be able to widen their vocabulary by listening to higher leveled books.

The listening center will give my students the opportunity to expand on their oral language and their reading skills that they might not get at home.

The listening center will make reading more accessible to them.
