This project will make a difference in the lives of my students. One of the most critical skills students learn in the first few years of school is book and print awareness. Learning how to open a book, follow along with the words, and identify words is part of that. The best way to build these skills is for children to read at home with their parents.
Having Spanish texts available at home means that Spanish-speaking parents can read with their children. Students in my community do not have many books in their homes. They rely on the schools and their teachers to provide these books for them. The students will take the books home and read with their parents, this way they can both comprehend the story. The parents can then ask the child questions in their native language. They will then return them so that other students can enjoy the books.
