Help me give my students the best year ever. We are going to read and have so much fun. They are going to read and at the same time, they will write and present about what they read.
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
By working on this project, students who read these novels find reading fun and start reading for enjoyment! Helping them begin to learn that reading is fun is perfect way to build better readers.
These two books that I am going to use with my Low-intermediate and transitional kids are the best way to incorporate all the strategies to make them better readers as well as to improve their writing and speaking skills.
My students are learning the English language, they are very talented and engaged to learn and what best way to do it that incorporate them in the reading world.
Students will learn to identify and write several different kinds of sentences including sentences beginning with a prepositional phrase (After the party, Martin went to sleep), sentences including an appositive (Vicky, a student in Martin’s English class, quickly became a good friend), and sentences starting with “According to ____, ____” used to make references (According to the article by Paul Scott, teenagers who miss more than 10% of school days in a single year are much less likely to graduate from high school.) There are also some assignments on identifying and correcting sentences and fragments and creating 4 types of sentences (statements, questions, exclamations, and commands).
Students will also be introduced to a color-coded paragraph with elaboration and a model for a three-paragraph formal letter. Both of these formats will be used again and again in this unit and in future units. Students who master the three-paragraph letter are likely to do well on the writing portion of the ACCESS test.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
