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 Students

Many of my class qualifies for free or reduced rate lunch. My students are diverse learners that all need something different from school. Students in my class are given access to flexible seating, a classroom library, and a Makerspace every day in order to better their learning.

Our classroom is full of diverse, excited learners who need a wide range of resources to learn.

My goal is to create a caring classroom community where my students feel valued and a sense of belonging. My students teach me just as much as I teach them.

My Project

These books will give my students a more diverse library. It includes a diverse range of titles from a diverse range of authors.

My class is very diverse and needs a more diverse library.

Students need to be exposed to a variety of texts representing a variety of people. Our world is very diverse as are the students in our classrooms.

These books will provide my students with the opportunity to work in small groups as well as read a variety of books on their own. I will use the books for students to discuss and learn from each other.
