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

The population of my kiddos is very diverse. Some of my students have been exposed to reading, while others have never been in school or held a book.

Many of the students are English language learners.

The use of big books will allow my students to be exposed to all the early literacy skills they need to be successful independent readers. Sheared reading books are great to teach simple skills such as finding the cover or title to more complex skills such as decoding, and vocabulary. The large print will help me model the strategies I want them to learn and apply.
