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

My students are English learners who love to read in their mother tongue and in English.

The donations to this project will help to improve my students' reading fluency and comprehension.

These books such as Esperanza, will be used for shared reading, small group instruction and for independent reading as these readings are of my students' interest. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
