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 22 second graders are excited to be finding their groove in the physical classroom, after our previous year of distance learning online. They are such a sweet, thoughtful group who are enthusiastic to learn how the world around them works. Their inquisitive nature drips into each of our lessons, allowing us to explore questions that connect to their real-life experiences and how they are linked to what we are learning. Reading in particular has allowed them to explore different fiction and non fiction stories, engaging them and fostering this genuine curiosity.
My students have been working hard to develop their reading skills this year, and have found joy in the diverse worlds and topics reading engages them in.
I have recently been focused on organizing and providing a classroom library where students can easily select books that are at their various reading levels and diverse genres. However, as a first year teacher, my resources have been limited. This year, I am focused on expanding our library as I find books that are grade-level appropriate and are linked to reading comprehension tests to further motivate students to read.
My Project
These books will help grow our library in the classroom, providing my students with a greater variety of reading books that they can not only enjoy reading, but also take comprehension tests on. As a first year teacher, I do not have a lot of books that have comprehension tests (Reading Counts). These books that I have added in my project all have a Reading Counts tests that will help motivate my students to read, as well as allow them to measure their comprehension of reading various books.
My students absolutely love reading, and they are constantly working to improve their reading levels.
Most of my students have limited access to books outside of school, and providing them with these books in the classroom that they may also take home to read will allow them to further embrace reading! These books are so essential for them, especially this year, due to the past year of distance learning. These books will give my students the opportunity to not only explore various books, but also allow them to develop their reading skills that will benefit them in both their present and future endeavors.
