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 Students

Do you remember using your imagination to create a suspenseful story or writing in a journal or diary to express your feelings? Writing is an important way for children to begin to articulate experiences in their lives and what they observe about the world around them.

My students are enthusiastic learners in a high poverty area.

They often lack the resources needed to be more successful in school. Some of them struggle to attain basic educational skills. They are very creative, expressive and love learning! Writing is a valuable tool they can use to express themselves and will help them to become more thoughtful and insightful students.

My Project

These resources will allow my students to gain the daily writing practice they need to become more proficient at writing so that they will be better able to write independently and with more clarity. The activities I selected are high interest materials that will reinforce writing skills that I teach during writing lessons. They also inspire and allow students to write independently in engaging and fun writing centers.

Our educational system has emphasized test taking skills and strategies at the expense of more critical thinking and analysis which students need in order to be successful in society.

My hope is that by focusing on writing skills and strategies with my students I will provide them with a more well-rounded education.
