My Project

Hola!!

Thanks for taking your time to take a look to my project.

I work in a Spanish Immersion School. This school teach a second language to the children. It is very difficult to find resources that help students to meet the CCSS. I'm creating a project were I look for books that meet each one of the First Grade Literacy Standards.

Unfortunately as a specialty school we don't have a curriculum that meets our needs. As teachers we have to be constantly searching for resources that support learning, engagement and meet the standards requirements.

Students in an Immersion Program are learning a second language so it is very important for them to have visuals and resources that they can explore. Having these books in the classroom will make a huge difference in our lessons. Kids will finally have the opportunity to have real books in their hands instead of having them virtually. Please help me to provide my students this amazing experience.
