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

As a class, we focus on building foundational academic skills in reading, writing, and math while also focusing on social-emotional learning. These focus areas will enable students to be successful inside and outside of the classroom in their personal and work relationships.

My Project

Students begin to love (or hate) reading at a very early age. I want to be the reason why students love to read by providing them with a classroom library that is filled with fun and engaging texts.

In this project, I have included a variety of books for my students to enjoy.

I have included The Questioneers series to encourage science, technology, art and mathematics and the Elephant and Piggy series to encourage independent reading.

With these books, readers of all levels will benefit and fall in love with reading!
