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 wonderful 2nd graders are ready and willing to learn, but many of them do not have books of their own and have rarely been out of their own neighborhood. Scholastic News will help me show them that there is an exciting world for them to learn about and explore!

My enthusiastic, hard-working students come from a very diverse, economically challenged community.

They come from families that love them, support them and want them to succeed. Our school is a great place for them to thrive. I am always trying to inspire them about the opportunities that await them in the world outside of their own neighborhood.

My Project

My students will treasure each issue, helping to improve their literacy skills, which is critical for all of my students. Just as importantly, Scholastic News will broaden their social studies curriculum since we seldom have enough time for subjects outside the core curriculum of reading, writing and math.

My students will be thrilled to receive their own magazine!

They enjoy taking home the magazine and reading it with their siblings and parents.

Scholastic News will provide inspiration for them to keep learning and to set their sights higher for their futures. Each and every day, they are eager to learn together! Scholastic News will help us achieve our goal!
