Hi friends,
I’m starting a new role and have been tasked with making a curriculum for a 10th grade (US) Bilingual Language Arts course. It is aimed at helping students whose home language is Spanish learn English while also increasing their literacy in Spanish. My goal would be to teach 6-8 books through the year with 3 in English and 3 in Spanish.
Some of my students will be able to speak Spanish but might have low literacy in Spanish and low literacy in English as well, so ideally, I’d like to find books that are 7th or 8th grade levels.
This course is going to be taught in nyc to students with backgrounds from Latin America and would appreciate any recommendations for these authors.
Thank you so much.
