Help me give my students resources that allow them to read multiple texts on a digital device. These Chromebook devices enable the students to connect to our web-based programs that have different genres of literature.

Celebrating 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.
How would you reach students who need to develop positive reading attitudes when you don't have resources? My wonderful students are vivacious, young readers who are curious about the world around them but don't have multiple resources to use for reading in order to create a reading attitude that will carry them into the future.
Our students were recently affected by Hurricane Harvey and lost most of their prize book possessions.
Our school is a Title 1 school with the majority of our students receiving reduced or free breakfast and lunch. The lack of life experiences for most of our students can be made up in the pages of a book. Right now, our students are at the age where a positive reading attitude will take them to the next level!
My Project
For our intermediate students, the ability to use a digital device such as a Chromebook opens up a world of reading to even the most unmotivated reader. Most of our students lost their personal books in the hurricane so they can't bring books from home to school to read. The Chromebooks allow our students the capability to read books while their teachers conduct work stations and small group reading.
The most unmotivated reader becomes motivated when they know a digital device can be used to read a text.
During our free time to read, we can use the Chromebooks to partner read a text with headphones connected to the device. Many of our lower leveled readers enjoy sitting with a partner and reading together or listening to the book read by a great reader.
