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.
I have a loving and very energetic group of third graders. My students are genuine with each other and welcoming to anyone who enters our classroom. Each student has a distinct personality yet all together they create a common and strong feeling of community.
My students are innovative, creative, and ready to dive into learning.
All students are encouraged to use the inquiry process and collaboration in learning. I am privileged to be part of a group of teachers who put a great deal of time and energy into creating beautiful learning environments. As a school community, we continue to grow and ensure learning is not impacted by outside factors. This resilience allows our students to thrive.
My Project
Our library is always growing. To accommodate that growth, every year I add at least one shelf. These shelves are the heart of our library. They make reading inviting and accessible to all students who enter. Every summer our books and shelves need to pack up and moved into the hallway for cleaning. This has become quite a task and resulted in some wobbly shelving.
We are asking for new shelves that will expand with our growing collection of books and be mounted so they do not need to be moved yearly.
The mounting system being requested is flexible. More shelves can be added in the future. Shelving may not directly impact students as readers but creating a classroom environment that demonstrates a love of books greatly influences their reading life.
