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.

I teach a fourth grade class in a high needs, Title 1 school in the Bronx. There is a strong emphasis on structure and curriculum and I fear that the students' imaginations are being neglected in the process.

There is such a focus on covering the curriculum that the student's imaginations are hampered. By focusing on an author study from this particular author, my student's will be able to open up their imaginations.

The books that I have selected are primarily from the author Roald Dahl. Dahl writes based on imaginary characters and events that are interesting and captivating for students. I would like to expose my students to more of his work.

Fostering the students' imagination will entice them to become more engrossed in reading and think in a very different manner than that which is being taught throughout the curriculum.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
