Through these difficult times, many of my students need to be able to feel proud of themselves and they need constant motivation. Being able to read to my students every day, even through a virtual platform, helps them make sense of the world around them. The stories help them connect to one another and create a sense of belonging. These books will be read to them to create beautiful classroom discussions where we will learn to value everyone's feelings. By reading to my students I am able to promote the love for reading while promoting diversity. All students deserve to hear stories on how others over come day to day events just like the ones they experience. These books will also be delivered to their houses so they can work on assignments at home and create wonderful book reports. In a bilingual classroom you find that not everyone has mastered the English language which is why it is so important to have books in Spanish. Students will still be reading and later be able to transfer that knowledge.
