My Project
As a middle school ELA teacher, my goal is to get every student to love reading! My school has a large Hispanic population and it has been significantly on the rise! However, my classroom library does not reflect these changes in my Spanish novel collection. This past year with the small amount that I do have, I was able to get 90% of my Spanish-speaking students on or above grade level! This was through a multitude of strategies but the one that stood out was their access to books in their native language! Similar to my English-speaking students I want to ensure that my English learners have a plethora of rich and interesting texts that they can engage with!
The key to loving reading is finding a book that reels you in!
The best way to do this is by having options. This set of novels in Spanish will give my students options in finding a book that is just right for them! Every day we start with 15 minutes of silent reading. Students set a reading goal for the amount of books they want to read by the end of the year and we work towards that goal daily. Reading daily will build their stamina, fluency of words read, comprehension, and writing skills! I can't wait to give my students a beautiful and diverse collection of books to get excited about reading every single day!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
