Word Warriors!

Help me give my students books. My students have already read the other units and if we do not get new books, I will have to make them read the same ones over again. Help please.

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 studens are taking part in a strategic reading class because our stdent population is performing below grade level. The kids are making great progress with this program, but the next unit requires books that I do not have. These books will be in the hands of kids immediately after I get them. My studens are working hard and deserve these resources.

My school does not have the resources to buy more books.

My students share books, and we do the best we can with what we have.
