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

"I don't want to read, it's too hard!" is something I hear in my classroom a lot when I ask them to pick a book out of our class library. It's understandable that my students feel this way - most of the books in my library are too hard for them to read on their own. I'm asking for high-interest books that all my students will be able to read. Most of these books focus on the fundamentals of reading - sight words and decodable text.

Students need to find ways to enjoy reading - they can only do this when they have books available that they can access independently.
