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

Please help my students practice and enjoying reading. They can practice reading during independent reading time. My students need access to technology in the classroom.

My students attend an inner city school and they need motivation to read more.

I feel that an eReader would give students who finish their work early a chance to read their favorite stories. The eReader will motivate students to complete their work and let them read and practice their favorite stories.

My Project

I've recommended eReaders to some of my past students' parents and they've told me that the eReader has helped their children go up a grade level in their reading. My students can practice their reading comprehension and practice their reading fluency. They can make their parents proud that they are excellent readers.

The impact that the eReader would have on my students would be that they would become life long readers.

The eReader will motivate them to read more. They can also use the eReader to play educational games. I feel that an eReader would be an excellent investment for my classroom. I can already imagine my students enjoying numerous amounts of interesting new stories that are on the eReader.
