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

Book clubs with rich discussion questions and good friends in fourth grade leads to a love of reading. I have students who are interested in learning about book clubs. These Great work books have highly engaged literature discussion questions that have been researched by the Shell Corporation.

Highly Engaged and high interest books are the key to a Love of life long readers.

Book clubs are my way to promote a love of reading in my 4th grade class. These resources provide highly engaged literature discussion questions to promote reading.
