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

As a new ENL teacher with limited resources, I am eager to provide my English Language Learners with guided reading books that cater to their specific needs.

These books will offer targeted support, helping students build essential language skills, improve comprehension, and gain confidence in their reading abilities.

Access to a diverse range of guided reading materials is crucial for creating an inclusive and effective learning environment where all of my students can thrive.

Your support will directly impact these students by providing them with the tools they need to succeed in mastering English, empowering them to excel academically and beyond.

By supporting this cause, you are not only helping to build a stronger educational foundation for these young learners but also fostering a love of reading that can last a lifetime.
