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.

Hello everyone! I am currently teaching a self contained special education class (12:1:1). Most of my students are in Kindergarten and I have one first grade student. Their disabilities range from speech and language impaired, autism, health impairments, and learning disabled. They are very energetic and very busy which is why we are known as the "busy bees". My students inspire me everyday because even though they have cognitive or health impairments they are still full of life and have beautiful and joyful spirits.

Unfortunately this year New York City suffered from numerous budget cuts. Due to this fact, Teacher's Choice money (money we can use for our classrooms) was cut drastically. I now have very little money to spend on supplies/materials/books for my classroom, which is unfortunate because the students are the ones who are suffering the most due to lack of supplies. I recently moved into a new classroom and the classroom library was very disorganized and outdated. The previous class was a bilingual special education class so most of the books in the library were in Spanish and since they were 3-5th grade students the books are too challenging for my Kindergrtners, who are monolingual (only English).

I want to get my students excited about books and excited about reading. This has to start with books that excite and motivate them to read, and also books that are on their level. Every year the most popular books in my library are Clifford, Curious George, Spot and Arthur which is why I am requesting these books. The more challenging books I will reserve as read alouds and easier books such as spot are perfect for their book baggies from them to practice pointing to the words and looking to to pictures to gain meaning.

With your help, I will be able to excite and movitate my students to love books and love to read.
