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

Hi! I am a School Counselor at a Title 1 school in North Carolina. I have been reading the first Harry Potter book to a group of fourth grade students during their lunch time this year. I would love if each student has a book to look at as I read aloud. There are many ESL students in my class; visualizing the words will help as they increase vocabulary and understanding of the English language. I've also included some fun gifts as we sort into our own Hogwarts houses and talk about character strengths!
