Reading Stars

Help me give my students these books which tie into our curriculum perfectly. Our library is in need of new books as a first year teacher most of the material provided is torn or missing pages. Thank You!

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

These books will continue to enhance their learning and help absorb the curriculum. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy, they complete work there, and they read independently! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy during small group time. They will also be able to choose books that interest them. My students love to see the new books I put out every time we change the topic for the month. They have preferred books that they love to travel with around the classroom and even use them as emotional support during the school day.
