Books for my Pre-K Classroom!

Help me give my students books to listen to for read alouds. My goal is to teach my students to be open and accepting of everyone, which is why I've included many social emotional learning books.

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

"Reading aloud is one of the most important things parents and teachers can do with children. Reading aloud builds many important foundational skills, introduces vocabulary, provides a model of fluent, expressive reading, and helps children recognize what reading for pleasure is all about."

I plan to use these books to build relationships with my students, to help build their confidence and to help them build a love for reading.

Being a good reader helps to set a strong foundation for all other learning. I can't wait to share these with my Pre-K babies.
