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

These books are tailored for bringing literacy alive in the classroom and have steps and stages for every age group! Jan Richardson is an expert in guided reading and has tons of strategies to meet the needs of all learners. Servallo is excellent as well and has each stage of the writing process layer out in a way to really help students thrive. I am hoping to use these to help me immediately implement some intervention strategies for my classroom as well as to help me become a better literacy teacher overall!
