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

My students are enthusiastic, devoted, and creative learners. They come to school ready for success each day with a burst of excitement. The use of these guided-reading books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy! These leveled books will help me do guided reading lessons with them, along with providing them with books to take home that they will be able to read.

With these new books, my students will have access to books they are able to read independently at their targeted grade level.

Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and my students are thankful for the opportunity to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind with their respective levels. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.

I have also added headphones for students to use during independent computer time. Our students have access to I-ready and Epic!, which are both reading programs. In these programs, they work independently and can have lessons taught to them or books read to them to help them understand. These headphones are important so they can work independently and successfully without interrupting their classmates.
