Book For a Bilingual Classroom

Help me give my students Spanish and English books to read in our classroom library.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Solete's classroom raised $443

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 Project

The Spanish books will help my students at higher levels to gain knowledge of the different stories we read in class.

My students are given the opportunity to read independently around the room or read with a partner.

This is something that students enjoy doing in Spanish class.

I will use the English books with lower levels to identify different grammar tenses in Spanish after they translate the story from English to Spanish.

Some books can be used to accompany lessons and placed in centers as well.

Thank you for your support.

Mrs. Solete Thomas R Proctor High School Grades 9-12
