Help me give my students increase reading comprehension skills while learning about real-life experiences. My students are low readers, many are reading below a 6th-grade level and need high-interest reading materials to ignite the joy of reading.

Celebrating 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 high school students in a low-income community that face challenges every day of their lives. Even though they face life challenges they always come to class and greet me with a smile. One of the challenges that they face is the inability to read. This group of students needs high-interest, low Lexile books that will ignite the joy of reading that will last a lifetime, build comprehension skills and open their minds to investigate and explore the written word. These books will be read together and discussed to bring a deeper understanding and appreciation of the written word.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
