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

This is the second part of our read aloud series. I am wanting to use these books to help my gifted learners to go deeper in their thinking. I want them to see things with a different eye. These books will help us learn how to do this. We will read and practice our strategies with these books and then carry it over into our other subjects and readings. This will really help them think beyond the surface level of a book. We will be able to go deeper into what they read.
