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

Our first grade class is in need of decodable texts in the Science and Social Studies genres. Oftentimes, the textbooks are too hard for the students to read. There are a lot of English learners in our classroom. A few do not speak English, some have limited English, and some are progressing in English, but have not become fluent yet. There are currently 5 different languages spoken by students as home languages in my classroom.

This TPT gift card will allow me to purchase texts that are more appropriate to the reading levels and interests of my first graders.

My students especially like to read about animals.

My first graders will also be able to access some of the Science and Social Studies standards through these texts. My first graders love to read and learn.
