The collection helps build literacy skills, promotes well-being among students, and provides tools for meaningful and purposeful instruction.
We can change the scope of education across the country by committing to the following goals:
Student Well-Being Improve participation and build student confidence by immersing children in the unique language structures of Spanish, introducing Spanish academic vocabulary within context, offering children new ways to verbalize their thoughts, and encouraging cross-linguistic connections that lead to stronger literacy skills in English and Spanish. Teaching with Meaning and Purpose The instructional materials are 100% bilingual, meaning that teachers and school leaders with limited Spanish proficiency can rely on English instructions to guide students through books in Spanish and educators proficient in Spanish have the convenience of using the Spanish-language teaching supports. Stories for Everyone This collection will expose children to new perspectives and ways of thinking, with access to a variety of authentic Spanish-language literature and high-quality transadaptations of beloved English language books featuring strong human protagonists across a wide range of cultures and communities.
