My Project

I teach the English side of a Spanish Dual Language Immersion classroom. My English-speaking students would greatly benefit from having more Spanish texts in the classroom, specifically bilingual texts that would build a bridge between them two languages.

Throughout the year, many new students move to our Title I school from Spanish-speaking countries.

These students struggle to acquire English, but bilingual books can help! These books can also help Spanish speakers learning English to build a bridge between the two languages.

Some of these books would be available for check-out, letting students read them independently. Other books would be used for one-on-one or small group time with the teacher.
