Celebrating 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.
Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
My students are in the dual language program, which means half of their daily instruction is in English, and the other half is in Spanish. I teach reading and math in English, while my partner teacher teaches science, social studies, health, and spanish language arts in Spanish. The goal is for them to be fluent in both languages.
In our class, our favorite quote is "It's okay not to know, but it's not okay to not try.
My students face challenges everyday because most of them are learning a different language. Besides learning a new language, they are also learning to read for the very first time, in both languages.
My Project
My students are required to read book on their reading level and take quizzes that test for comprehension. I want to ensure that my students have a variety of books to choose from. Not only do I want them to read, but I want them to read interesting books that will build their motivation to read. Currently, my book selections are limited, so mos times my students have to read books online. I think that's a great option, however, as they are learning how to read, I'd like for them to be able to us their fingers as they track each words, and interact with the pages and the pictures.
More than half of students from low‑income households
