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

These books will continue enhancing the print-rich classroom I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students enjoy, we just added a new class of TK, and my library needs more books that are age appropriate. I read on the carpet to them, they complete work there, and they read independently! They love books! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunity to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind. I have watched them looking at books just like these the past few weeks of school, and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students can choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time. Even though my students are little, they grow their brains quickly. I love seeing their faces when they take a book, show so much interest, and share with their classmates.

With these new books, my students can grow their brains, spark their interest, and learn and practice Spanish!

My students can choose from various books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level.

They will also be able to choose books that interest them. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow more assertive in reading. My students have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
