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

Enchancing our library will promote a love for reading and provide students with more book selections. Our library is in the need of sports books for our students who have a love for sports. Students will build their comprehension while reading books of their interests.

My project consist of decodable readers that will help new immigrant students learn to read.

My goal is for students to use these books to practice what they are learning during their phonics instruction and have students reading in the English language. Please help enhance our library.
