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.

My Project

I am requesting a subscription to StoryWork magazine. My goals for this project is to inspire a love for reading, strenghten literacy skills, and encourage my scholars through positive recogniton and rewards. As we all know literacy is the foundation of learning, confidence, and future success. It allows us to achieve more and do the unthinkable. When my students are motivated to read and express themselves, they become stronger readers, writers, and speakers inside and outside of the classroom. Through this project, I hope to create an engaging learning experience where students feel safe, excited, and confident. Through the subscription to StoryWorks magazine I can help students grow into a successful and motivated reader.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
