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

Help give my 4th and 5th grade ELA students beautiful new books that they will love to read time and time again. It is my hope that these new books will motivate my students to visit our classroom library and take books to read. I want to build a love of reading in my ELA students. The best way to build that love of reading is to have books readily available that they will want to read.

My 4th and 5th grades are incredible students who love to learn and love ELA class.

I would love for them to build their reading comprehension and fluency with books that they love.
