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 Students

My emerging readers love looking at books. Wouldn't it be great if while they were looking at books the book could read the story to them?

I teach in an inner city school in Massachusetts.

Many students who walk into my classroom have yet to learn the joys of reading. I have 28 students in a full inclusion classroom. We are listed as a Level 3 out of 4 school, and funding is minimal. I spend a lot of my own money buying books and supplies for my students. Please help us learn to be excited about and LOVE reading!

My Project

During our literacy centers, my students move around to various centers. We have guided reading, word work centers, writing centers, and more! If we had the Leap Frog Tag Readers I have requested, my students would be able to go to an independent center where they could experience the joy of reading independently. These Tag Readers will introduce my students to a world where words talk, pictures come to life, and stories live out loud, engaging children's senses to make reading a rich, fulfilling experience. My students will learn basic reading skills such as 1:1 word correspondence, and concepts of print by using these Tag Readers. These Tag Readers and Tag books will help my students learn important reading skills. Please help us learn how to read!!

There is nothing more important than supporting a child who is learning to read.

The Leap Frog Tag Readers help stories come to life. Learning to read is crucial in the success of any child. Please help make reading a fun and exciting experience. Please help support my kindergarten students as they learn to read! Thank you!
