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

These little learners are so sweet and eager! My students are English language learners. Many students in my class have never been in school prior to this year. They are logging in to our classroom virtually daily and ready to do their best during these uncertain times. They're brave and are a true inspiration. They are the reason I smile daily with their adorable writing pieces and messages they leave me on a daily basis. Reading at home gives students more of an opportunity to explore new ideas, dive into new worlds, and experience a different life. An opportunity to provide reading materials to enrich my students’ learning is one of my top priorities especially during these uncertain times with distance learning.

The students come from diverse backgrounds and economic status.

Many of these students are reading below grade level. Then, there are those students who need to be challenged. These students need more enriching pieces of literature to maintain that joy of reading within the classroom that their parents have created from early childhood.

My Project

My students love to be read to. They enjoy all types of books. It is one of my favorite parts of our day. Adding these new books to our classroom library will enhance our reading and learning.

Students need access to diverse books to make sense of the diverse world around them.

These books will give my students the opportunity to read books that have characters that look like them! These books will add a diversity to my classroom library with books that are culturally relevant and reflective of my students, empowering my students to see themselves in these diverse characters.

These books are also by a diverse group of authors that can prove to my students that they can do anything they set their mind to. The crayons will also benefit my students when they are asked to draw themselves, they will have crayons to match them!
