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

Reading is a joyous experience, for many of my students, and graphic novels are so important to engage students. Making connections with the reading is an important skill for any reader, thus providing students with graphic novels that have amazing details and illustrations to support the visualization.

Besides developing visual literacy, graphic novels support students in expanding their vocabulary.

Graphic novels are about making connections with a text, through their ideas, and words. All kinds of readers are able to connect to graphic novels, trust their process as they read, and develop their life-long reading skills.
