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 readers will enjoy these engaging decodable readers. Decodable books allow students to practice and apply the letter-sound relationships they are learning. When using these texts, children practice, apply, and master decoding skills which will help them become better readers through the practice. They will benefit from decodable texts that allow them to apply what they learned in phonics in a connected text. Books where most of the words require you to use letter-sound knowledge will encourage the reader to rely on and use their letter-sound knowledge instead of using less reliable supports for reading words, such as context clues or looking at the pictures. In advance, thank you for all the support.
