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

Our class is an ICT (integrated co-teaching) classroom. There are 28 first graders, eager to learn. Integrated co-teaching has two teachers. There are general education students and students with disabilities. Their disabilities vary, including speech and language, other health impairments, and autistic children.

The children are very enthusiastic, and ready to learn.

This is an important age for them to love learning!! The students love touching and reading new books that interest them. Reading is a special time in our classroom!

My Project

Books are very important in a child's life. By having these books, we will be able to run successful guided reading groups during reading. I want the students to see how fun and exciting reading can be. If we start them reading young, they will only grow stronger and stronger each year!

Students will be able to learn reading skills, and increase their reading level with all these wonderful books.

This will help start their love for reading at a young age!

We need to read on a daily basis, even as adults. I want to make sure that students love to read at a young age, so they can keep reading each and everyday!
