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 want to shine this year and they have set goals in the areas of reading and science. Help them reach their goals with these materials so they can gain the necessary skills to knock it out of the park during state testing. They are a hardworking group and are willing to go the distance. They will use these novels to practice literacy skills and improve comprehension. We will use the science materials to dive deep into our living organism unit and learn hands-on.

My students are eager to learn and excel, help them attain the skills they need to grow and master reading and science topics.
