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

Novel studies are a great way to spark student interests in reading as well as related studies, such as science and social studies.

Students are able to really dive in and dig deep during novel studies when they have access to their own books!

Being able to have a book in their hands as we complete a novel allows students to feel ownership over their learning process.

Having access to individual books also boosts reading comprehension skills, which are crucial for end-of-grade tests. Thank you for helping turn our readers into leaders!
