Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

I am currently a middle school Language Arts teacher in a high needs area. My students are English Language Learners and they would benefit from having new novels.

My students have to overcome many language barriers, learn the English language and required school concepts with little or no help from their parents. Their parents are unable to help them in the educational area due to lack of knowledge and understanding of the English language as well as knowledge of school concepts. My students work hard and often support their mothers and fathers by running household errands and watching younger siblings. Unfortunately, another thing that my students have in common is that their families are struggling financially. Within my school, the majority of the students qualify for the state's free or reduced meal program. Due to the budget cuts schools are facing, teachers in my school are no longer able to personally give each student the resources they desire. Supplying my students with this material would be a small step but it would give my students one less obstacle to overcome on their own.

It is a task in itself you get kids to put down the ipods, video games and computers but you could help making this task so much easier. Supplying my students with these high interest novels on the topics they love would be greatly appreciated.

With your help, I hope to create a a cozy novel nook for my three middle school English Language Arts classes. This will be a place to relax and enjoy a great book.
