My Project

There is nothing more exciting than seeing students look through a bucket of books and find a book that they are curious about, or a book they already love!

But to offer this opportunity we need books in Spanish!

We will create our classroom library in Spanish because our students are first-grade dual immersion students who need exposure to literature in Spanish.

Graphic novels, non-fiction, fiction series; when a student finds a book that piques their curiosity, they find a spot in the classroom to look at illustrations, read-to-themselves, or share with their friends what they like about a story.

Finding books in Spanish is often more difficult as well as more expensive. Literacy in any language is important. Our classroom will focus on a bilingual curriculum in both Spanish and English. Help us build our library in Spanish!
