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 Project

Our school is a K-8, charter school in an urban area.

Our students are diverse and they all strive to be civic-minded leaders, accomplished writers, and resilient lifelong learners.

Becoming accomplished writers means that students must be exposed to a variety of quality literature.

Being civic-minded leaders means our students engage in activities and conversations that focus on identity, diversity, justice, and action using the anti-bias framework from Teaching Tolerance as a guide.

By reading books that showcase gender inclusivity and a variety of lived experiences, our students will learn how to be tolerant and accepting of others who are either similar to or different than them. Using these types of books as read alouds for primary students changes the way students feel about themselves as members in our classroom community as well as their views of others. Having these books available in classroom libraries for upper grade students will provide a variety of options for independent reading opportunities.
