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 students are great, but there is so much they need in order to be successful. Being in a Title I district has allowed for some great resources over the years, but the kids have jumped from one program to the next and have experienced some gaps.
My students are some of the most spirited kids you'll ever meet.
The love of reading starts with one engaging book. It's easy to remember when I fell in love with reading--it started with "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." I want my students to have that same memory one day. They are constantly building up their abilities, but they need books in order to do that. They just need some help getting to the levels of success I know they're capable of!
My Project
I have chosen popular, award-winning young adult novels that will be engaging for my students. I chose books that I know my students will love and want to read. My goal is to find books that my students won't want to stop reading.
These books will be a pillar in my classroom during our daily choice reading time!
I am lacking shelves in my room for books right now, so I am asking for a couple shelves to house our new classroom library so that these books will have a place to live. We read daily, and having books in my classroom readily available for my students to browse and read will be a game-changer! A love of reading starts with one engaging text.
