Celebrating 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 are a group of creative, spontaneous, loving, young adults and, like many young adults just starting to learn how to navigate the world, they need extra love, support, and activities to stimulate their minds and make them excited and ready to think, learn, and get out and change the world!
We work to build a culture in my classroom where they feel accepted, safe, capable, and ready to participate in the world through action and innovation.
My goal each year is to provide my students with the best teaching I can offer, as well as the best activities that I can give them in order to succeed. But I know I cannot do it alone. As they say, "It takes a village to raise a child," and I know that to be true. My goal is always to make school a place that students want to be, teach them how to succeed in school and in life, work to create educated stewards of society in the children I teach, and ultimately give them the CHOICE that having an education can bring to their lives.
My Project
My students have so many stories. Some are heartbreaking, some are joyous, some are downright silly and strange, and yet they do not see that they are storytellers...yet.
With the right novels, a fresh toner cartridge to print their stories, and some cheering on and motivation that they CAN do it, my students will create their own anthology of stories by them and for them.
My hope is that my students will learn the craft of storytelling (in truth, they are already storytellers; have you ever listened to the gossip of middle schoolers-oh my!), and they will be proud of their own creations and want to publish their stories.
