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

Scholastic 'Action' magazine has exciting and relevant content about hot topics and inspiring people in each issue. Many of the topics covered are related to environmentalism and climate justice as an urgent issue of our time and share stories about young activists fighting for change. It is so important for students to keep their reading, learning, and hunger for knowledge alive while connecting them to current events in ways appropriate for their age/development. The great thing about having the text and digital version of this magazine is that they can read, annotate and analyze it from school or home - and in their preferred medium. As a Special Education teacher, I do love offering both (and tend to lean towards the tactile copy of the magazine as I see students interest is higher when they get to hold and flip through it as well).

To be able to read 'Action' magazine will help students feel engaged as they continue to build their nonfiction reading skills as they learn about current issues and inspiring people who are making a difference.

I have seen relevant articles engage even the most reluctant reader, and I know that helping a student build or continue their reading routine by introducing them to texts they love and promoting a true "reading-life", is the key to growth and success
