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

My 4th grade students often struggle with reading. Books at their reading level are about hats and cats or logs and frogs. I would like my students to fall in love with reading a book that interests them, yet is still accessible to their reading level. These books are great examples of books they can relate to and are closer to their reading levels.

Many of my students come from Latino backgrounds, so I want to include books from their culture.

Dog Man books are always in high demand, as well.
