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

My students are growing as readers and it has been amazing to see how much they have grown this school year. We are in need of new books to help us with our reading groups. My students work in groups and they read books and work on various skills like central idea, retelling, making connections and so much more. These new books will help them in their reading.

We need new books to our classroom library like series books and many other favorites.

My students will continue to grow and I would love to excite them with new books.
