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 Students

Our third grade class is truly missing the classroom environment. Being forced to transition into distance learning has left students feeling disconnected from what used to be their daily norm. Currently students are learning at home with digital resources and libraries.

Reading is a way for students to delve into a different world; more books will give them more opportunities to discover.

More books will also give me more opportunities for read aloud video creation and close reading lessons.

My Project

Our library is small and additional books will help grow our current collection. Students will have access to additional leveled books that grow with them. Mx. Orozco loves to record read aloud videos for students to engage with. Additional options will help supplement a limited amount of books that I currently have at home. Once distance learning has finished, these very same books will be added to our classroom library.

How amazing will it be to know that you not only helped grow a small classroom library but helped enhance literacy opportunities for a beautiful group of third graders?!
