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 Students

My school is a Title I charter. Mostly made up of English language learners, our room is constantly working on the acquisition of new vocabulary and a better understanding of multiple languages through literature.

My literacy room is full of hilarious, genuine, and vocal minds who exhibit a natural curiosity for the ever-evolving world around them.

A typical day looks chaotic and sounds rowdy. We are an active bunch who love to learn through discussion, movement, projects, and of course reading. All in all, there is simply nothing typical about my inquisitive learners.

My Project

Great readers stop and think! I am looking to bring age appropriate composition notebooks into my reading lessons. As a response to intervention teacher I work with the students who need the very most support. My goal this is year is to track our comprehension and decoding skills in personalized readers notebooks.

These notebooks would be our touchstones as we mark our reading strategies and develop our writing.

I am asking for a class set of primary, and lower grade notebooks as well as blank books that could be used to create our own stories!
