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 have been identified as having a variety of learning disabilities. I teach cross-categorical special education and English as a second language through the language arts content area. My students have processing/short term memory/long term memory difficulties, dyslexia, and much more. I even have a handful of students with autism in my room.

The families surrounding my school are from upper income levels; however, many of the students in my classroom come from the few low income homes.

My students are eager to learn and excited to be in my classroom. My students want to learn to read and be successful academically and socially. I enjoy teaching my students and hope to give them every opportunity for success that is available.

My Project

The book requested, On My Honor, is perfect for supporting students to learn plot structure. Students will also get to touch on story elements such as character, setting, and theme. The theme of this book will teach students to make positive gut decisions about what is right or wrong, as well as, tug on their emotions to teach them that rules are made to keep them safe. The readability level of this book is perfect for students with struggles in comprehension and fluency. With this story I hope to inspire students to pick up another book to take them on an adventure!
