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 am a teacher in a low-income / high poverty school district, where my scholars are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom.
I teach 2nd grade bilingual students in a Title 1 school in Houston, Texas.
My scholars come from low-income families and have many different learning styles. I am trying to create an environment where all my students are protected, engaged and focused during my lessons without distractions from outside influences. My scholars might not have access to technology at home, therefore I am trying to have that safe exposure during school.
My Project
Going on my 6th year teaching and some of the books in my classroom need to retire and I need to replenish with more books. My classroom needs books that are high interest in both fiction and nonfiction so my scholars are exposed to a variety of topics and genres. I have also requested headphones to be used with online e-books as some headphones have been damaged in the last year. Also, to keep them motivated I have requested some items for my treasure box.
This project is important to me so I am able to give my students the motivation to become lifelong readers.
