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
Students at our school had such a blast voting for their favorite 2021-2022 California Young Reader Medal Nominees over the course of the last few months and I can not wait to share this experience with them again!
This is an amazing opportunity for students to be able to let their voices be heard and learn about the power of their own vote.
Our students will have the chance to choose their favorite book in each of the following 3 California Young Reader Medal categories:
Primary Picture Books (We Don't Eat Our Classmates, Parker Looks Up, Grumpy Monkey, The Good Egg, Dozens of Doughnuts)
Picture Books for Older Readers (This Way, Charlie, Holes in the Sky, Dinosaur Lady)
Intermediate Chapter Books (The Lion of Mars, Gold Rush Girl, The Canyon's Edge).
It is my hope to get copies of the 2022-2023 nominees early so that I have many opportunities to share the books with the entire school. I also want to ensure that we have multiple copies on hand so that students who would like to read the books on their own all have plenty of opportunities to do so.
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
