Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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 Project

I have chosen books for this project that will be used as direct teaching during whole group and small group instruction for my students. I usually spend a ton of my own money and time going to Half Price Books to find books for my class. I would love to be able to look no more and have a good quality set of books for my Kindergarten students for every day reading.

These books are colorful, fun, and interesting!

And best of all, they are great quality!

Reading with my students every day is so very important to their development and growth as beginning listeners and readers. With this project, I will be able to give my students a memorable story time experience that will keep them engaged each and every day.
