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 books in this project have been specially requested by boys who struggle to read - either because they are at below-grade reading levels or because they do not have access to content that appeals to them. The goal of this project is to provide books that they have an interest in, knowing that they’ll read them!
I’m proud of these boys for still having the courage and persistence to read even though they find it hard.
The books they want to read have compelling storylines, appropriate reading levels, and characters they find relatable. There are also two different formats of the same books in hopes that they can either 1) companion read with someone at a higher level or 2) read the "lower" level book and graduate to the "higher" when they gain that skill.
(We also have a companion project: Great Stories for Girls!)
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
