Throughout the years, the Kaneland Foundation has been instrumental in building my Spanish classroom library. Students self-select books based on their reading levels and interest and get to build confidence in their literacy through fun stories. With Kaneland Foundation funding, we have been able to make reading in Spanish a part of classroom culture here in Sr. Donley’s class.
