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

The specific items that I am requesting will make a difference in the students' learning by allowing them to read, practice their fluency and vocabulary. Student love to read about the Dog Man adventures. They love the protagonist and the antagonist of the story. The plush will serve as props to bring the reading come alive. The students will be able to role play and get hooked on reading.

Reading novels improves students reading comprehension and vocabulary skills.

The students need to read literature they will enjoy. The Dog Man series books are a fun read. The students will practice their fluency and decoding skills while learning.
