Two of favorite parts about reading Spanish texts in class is that students find the language more real and concrete when they see that there are books published in that language, and also reading in Spanish reinforces their reading skills in English and vice-versa! \r\nThis particular text we read as a whole class, two chapters a day. Sometimes they would listen to me read as they followed along in their copies, and other days they read with a partner or a small group. Occasionally they would read a chapter on their own, and then follow up with a class activity to review. Your purchase made it possible for us to have the flexibility in how they would read because we had enough copies of the text for everyone to follow along in their own book. This also really helps with classroom management because there are less opportunities for distraction when students are not sharing a book.

May have been checked out and returned already. We have also read some of the books during our club time, and the students just light up. They are so grateful, and so am I as an LGBT educator.
