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 Students

My students come from mixed families, different backgrounds, and present various challenges unique to our classroom. They also have the biggest hearts, excitement for learning, and love for classroom community. Providing anything to help during these challenging times in the education community would be more than appreciated.

My class this year has suffered from years of COVID setbacks and many struggle with reading and social-emotional skills from lack of exposure and social time with others.

I am hoping to bring them resources that will give them a new found love of reading, connections to their reading, and being able to connect with one another on a healthy level.

My Project

Many of my strong readers and students are reading books with simple plots because they are drawn to graphic novels. Many of the graphic novels in our classroom are great for my below level readers, but fail to challenge my higher readers.

My hope is to provide students with graphic novels that will not only engage my students, but also challenge their reading and comprehension with more complex stories.

These books will push many of my readers and allow them to read stories that show character development, complex conflicts, and story lines that will keep them reading for longer periods of time!
