Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Students

My students are some of the most special, talented, hard-working, and funniest around. Every day they amaze me with their inquisitive questions, what they notice, and how willing they are to push through the difficult first years of comprehensible input to interpret and communicate with myself and their classmates. One of my students was even on the Disney+ Show Marvel's Heroes for helping homeless people starting at the age of 5.

Since my students give much to myself and to their community, I want to be able to give back to them by providing a input-oriented and communication centered classroom.

My Project

These books will provide a lot of comprehensible input to students from kindergarten through eighth grade to instill a passion for the Spanish language and Latin American and Spanish cultures. Each book is level and developmentally appropriate and also teaches important life lessons along the way. The language classroom is about so much more than just the language itself, and that shines through these books.

What better way to bring the different cultural products, practices, and perspectives to life than through the use of stories and drawings?

Students will use reading strategies we discuss to decipher the plot of each book.
