it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Our school is a Public Montessori school in which our students start by learning practical life skills which they will use in everyday life. Our students are an amazing group of 3 - 6 year olds. They stay in our classroom for a three year cycle. The relationships that they develop are inspiring.
Our students come to us from an urban environment in which resources run scarce and teachers have to find imaginative ways to engage our students.
Most of our students are eligible for free or reduced lunches, however they come to school eager to learn.

Non-fiction text is instrumental in developing language, world knowledge, and comprehension.
Reading non-fiction will help students to build background knowledge and academic vocabulary.
This set of non-fiction skill-building books will be a great addition to our guided reading library. These readers have simple text and colorful photographs that give readers the clues they need to read new words, build vocabulary and boost reading confidence.
