Help support Mrs. Montano's Classroom

The skills acquired from reading a book is a life skill that enhances the learning of every student. Through mentor texts students gain knowledge and are able to see the patterns of writing through the author's texts. I will be teaching grammar through a program that requires mentor texts. Grammar has been taught by having students look for the mistakes in sentences or stories given to them to correct. The program, "Patterns of Power" teaches the students to look for the patterns authors use and these texts serve as models to the students to mimic. The individual books listed would be used for this purpose. My school is an IB school and a planner that is taught in class is about the evolution of tools and how tools change our world. The class set of,"Quien fue Steve Jobs?" will be used to be read in class where reading skills will be embedded and knowledge gained on a person who made an impact on our world with his inventions he provided our world. I teach the class both Spanish and English and provide opportunities to keep up both languages. This planner is taught during black history and the class set of , "Who was George Washington Carver?" would provide the students practice with the English language and learn about another great inventor that would be tied in with black history month. This series of books have been proven to be liked and welcomed by my students. They love reading about people and I would like to continue to motivate them to read books. Giving them to read something they like makes it so much more easier to teach and continue to motivate them.
