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 Students
My students are a group of Fifth Graders that attend a Title I school in a Texas school district.
They are made up from a diverse set of backgrounds and include English language learners, special education students, and those receiving free or reduced-price lunches.
While they come from various backgrounds with various needs they enjoy engaging and interacting with one another in their learning. Most importantly of all, my students love coming to school, learning, and being in Fifth Grade.
My Project
We are hoping to read the amazing and best selling book "Wonder" as a class. The topics and themes addressed in this book are great discussion starters for my fifth graders as they dig deeper into literature this year and grow as students. Best of all this book will get them hooked and loving reading.
Igniting a passion for reading and learning is my job.
This book will do just that. A book that can never stay on our library book shelf is a great book to put into my readers hands and gives them an opportunity to love and learn from reading.
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
