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

As an independent study teacher at a PBIS school, I am now educating a great group of enthusiastic fourth, fifth, and sixth-grade students online. My spectacular students are so excited about learning and just love to share their ideas.

I am requesting some award-winning novels for my kiddos to enjoy and discuss.

Our online 4th and 5th graders need to read 2 novels every semester and complete a study guide. This demonstrates their comprehension and holds them accountable. I need these books to give my students a selection to choose from.
