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 would like for my students to participate in a classroom book club where they will be practicing their reading skills, and comprehension skills, and engaging in discussions with their peers. My goal is for each child in my classroom to work in small groups and read "just right" books so that they can fully experience the fun and enjoyment that comes with participating in a book club.

I hope that participating in a class book club with an engaging book will inspire a passion for literature, improve reading comprehension, and ultimately contribute to academic success.

I believe in them! I am changing the world one scholar at a time.

Thank you for your support, time and consideration.
