Hi! I’m a G/T Bilingual teacher (EC-6th), passionate about bilingual/dual language education and language learning.
Goodbye summer, welcome fall! It has been so hot in Texas, my students and I are anxious to start the new season. We are ready to see the leaves change, to learn about pumpkins and to finally be able to go outside.
TIP FOR TEACHERS: If you have an awesome school librarian like I do, give this list to her and/or check your local library to see how many books you can check out. If you want them for your personal library, simply click on the links and get them on amazon, you can see a list of all the books we have added so far here.
When you see this 🏫, it means we have a great activity to accompany this book!
