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 very insightful and inquisitive. Every day, I learn so much from them. They have such a passion and commitment to their education. Nowadays with so many technological resources, it is a breath of fresh air to have books to read to help us take a break from technology. Very few students take the time to take out a book to read for pleasure. Please help us obtain thirty-six Library Spanish level reading books.

Please help my students to develop their fluency in the target language.

If the students have access to books they may enjoy and use on a regular basis, they will improve their joy for reading.

I plan to have my students in my level two Spanish classes read a book every day for the first ten minutes. This will help them improve their joy of reading.
