Celebrating 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.
Every year I give my students a chance to reach their reading goals and adopt a pet from the class pet shelter. This is my 4th year doing this project, and every year my students love it!
I will be teaching 1st grade, and am looking to get several Aurora stuffed kittens and puppies and collars to fill our reading pet shelter.
Students will work towards their goals, and have a chance to adopt a pet from the class shelter when they reach the goal. They will receive an adoption certificate and get to name their pet. They will get to take their adopted pet home and it will become their at home reading buddy to read to.
This project is fun, motivates my students to learn to read and feel success, and provides them with a reading partner at home when one may not be available.
More than half of students from low‑income households
