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

Our school has adopted a new curriculum, and it lacks decodable text. Please help me get books into the hands of my students that will allow them the opportunity to practice their new found decoding skills.

Practice makes progress!

Kids need to see the value in the skills they are learning. Decodable text will be available to students in the library and at small groups. This availability will help them see themselves as readers.

The lack of decodable text has impacted our classroom immensely. It takes time to find good text or create it. Having readily available text will save us a lot of time and frustration!
