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 to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy. We read together and hold whole group and small group discussions where they gain a deeper understanding of the reading. Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. All the books I have selected I have chosen with my students in mind. These class sets will help us have a common place to meet and discuss mentally. The middle school students I work with are from a lower social economically challenged region and enjoying snacks while reading makes the reading more enjoyable.
