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
Second grade is the best grade to teach. The students are energetic, excited, and eager to learn. Each day they arrive at school waiting to absorb the content being taught. It is important that these activities are rigorous and engaging. Hands-on materials are necessary for active participation.
With most students in low-income housing, it is crucial to give them the tools they need to be successful whether they're engaged in live or remote learning.
My students have many different learning styles due to their various cultures and backgrounds. It is imperative to give them every tool they need to be successful as most students learn differently. Hands-on materials and various literature will help them stay engaged and expand on their love of learning.
My Project
Second grade is an extremely important grade for literacy development. However, many students in my school fall below benchmark reading level. In second grade, it is important to help students develop a love of reading by engaging them in book that they love.
This project will provide my classroom with books that interest them and get them excited to read.
Students love to read independently and with a partner. The books in this project will also bring cultural diversity to our classroom library. Students will be motivated to read if the characters and stories represent them.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
