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

We are an Integrated Co-Teaching (ICT) classroom of 23 students, about half of whom receive special education services. Our students are eager to learn and need the resources in order to be successful in their studies! Our students come from a variety of different economic backgrounds with most of our students receiving free lunch. My students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them for the rest of the day!

My Project

Help give students access and organization to a brand new leveled nonfiction library! You can help prepare them for their state test while teaching them the interesting facts they need to know about the world in which they live!

All of the students are bright, committed to their own education, and brimming with potential!

I am requesting 10 sets of book bins and 2 sets of label pockets to organize their classroom library! Book bins will be sorted by reading level and subject. The library will be used across many subjects and units. Students will be allowed to shop for books that interest them on their level to read during independent reading time.

This is especially useful for students who are reading behind grade level, as low level nonfiction books are still of great interest to them.

Finally, the nonfiction library will be used to prepare students for upcoming science, social studies, and math units by activating and building prior knowledge about grade concepts. This will help prepare students for their state tests at the end of the year while building their love of reading and the natural world!

In my own class elementary school classrooms, I had access to thousands of books, covering all the genres imaginable, and organized to make them accessible to me at my specific reading levels.

The students I teach now have never had those resources available to them. Will you please help organize our classroom's nonfiction book library? In doing so, you will be helping a class of Brooklyn kids grow their brains and learn about the world.
