Our students our proud to be bilingual, biliterate, and bicultural. We are a proud Dual Language campus with students from different cultures, languages and backgrounds. Dual language is a vehicle to bringing students together and learning from each other. Our campus library lacks funding for Spanish authentic text and as teachers we do our best to best serve our dual language student by providing bicutlural literature and experiences. These books will provide students with equitable access to equitable resources that reflect and value their culture. When students see themselves in a book and hear themselves and their families in the language, it validates their self-identity. Authentic Spanish literature can be incorporated into instruction through read alouds, literature circles, mentor texts, and in classroom libraries for independent reading. With all of the benefits, bilingual and dual language programs can’t afford NOT to have authentic Spanish literature in their classrooms.
