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 students are all diagnosed with speech and language impairment or other learning disabilities. In addition, I work with many English Language Learners who come from low income households. My students are motivated and enthusiastic to learn!
Your donation will provide my students with books that will enable me to target vocabulary, grammar, and narrative language skills.
We will work on identifying story elements and formulating complete sentences describing the pictures in the story. We will also work on inferencing and predicting skills. The use of wordless books increases some students' motivation and cooperation because it takes away the stress of decoding, which is very difficulty for some of them. Instead, the students can focus on using verbal language skills to describe pictures in these wordless stories. My students and I thank you in advance, for your generosity and support!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
