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

I love that my students have a yearning for learning. I love that they are excited to learn how to read. They look for every opportunity to explore books. They are ELLs that love to engage in conversations that will promote their learning adventures.

The materials in this project will support their learning needs with Guided Reading and anchor charts with the Easel Pad for visual representation which will support my student's learning needs.

These Guided Books will be of great help to students that are learning a new language. The students need all the support they can get. Please help me give my students the academic support they need so that they can continue to improve their reading skills. The anchors will support each learning style and assist my students with retaining information and meeting educational objectives.

I am working to help my students improve and succeed with their reading skills. These books with visuals will engage and provide students with the support they need. Please help me give my students books that will meet their needs.
