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

Please help me provide my students with access to grade-level appropriate reading material.

These Nate the Great chapter books and sight word kits are perfect reading material for our first graders.

The students have been exposed to other books in this series and so far have a love for this series. Please help me give them access to these books because many of them do not have access to the library in our area or even access to purchase books that are on grade level and are appropriate for their age. My students are eager to learn English as their second language and these stories are the perfect way to get them excited about learning to read.
