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 biliterate readers that are motivated by beautiful and interesting books in both English and Spanish. Our third grade classroom has emergent readers that are working on their fluency and love to practice with Elephant and Piggie Books. We also have students that are fluent readers but are working on acquiring a second language and benefit from the visual support that graphic novels provide.

Our classroom library needs new and exciting bilingual titles that students won't want to put down!

These titles will be offered to students during their independent reading time, partner reading time, during guided reading groups, and literature circles. It will greatly help our students get the boost that they need to become more proficient and life long readers!
