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.
My Students
My school is very diverse in that we have many English Language Learners. They make up almost half the population of our school. We are an all-kindergarten school made up of approximately five hundred 5- and 6-year-olds. That's a lot of little bodies that can be influenced in a positive way.
I teach eighteen enthusiastic, eager, and energetic kindergartners at a Title I school.
Our school is in a very low socioeconomic community. Because we are in a high-poverty community, all students at our school receive free breakfast and lunch through the community eligibility program. Most of my students have not had the opportunity to attend pre-k, and they have not had significant learning experiences in their homes.
My Project
I love reading to my students! In fact, it is one of my most favorite times of our school day. I read multiple books aloud to my students daily. They ask, "what story are we going to read today" and that makes them excited that they are learning to love books and reading.
Studies show that students who are read daily have a greater opportunity to become successful learners.
And for that reason is why I make reading aloud to my students daily a non-negotiable time of our day.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
