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

Extensive research has shown that students who have immediate and ongoing access to engaging books in their classrooms exhibit higher reading achievement, better comprehension, and an increased vocabulary. That is why I am asking for engaging chapter books.

Research suggests that chapter books help build a strong foundation for literacy by increasing a child's attention span for longer stories and strengthening vocabulary and comprehension.

But there's more to be gained from chapter books than just technical reading skills.

Chapter books are a great way to get children to really appreciate the written word and utilize their listening and memory retention skills. They are the perfect way to let a child's imagination run wild with their own vision of a story and continue them on their reading journey.
