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

The majority of my students come from a low socio-economic status where opportunities are limited. They attend a public elementary school which is a Title I school. A large population of our students are ESOL 1, so they are non- English or limited English speakers.

I love helping my students reach their full potential.

My students are hardworking, energetic, eager to learn students. They are excited about every new topic I present to them. We learn lessons that go beyond standards; lessons that are useful for growth throughout life.

My goal in designing this project is to strengthen, enhance and enrich my students’ interest in science and STEAM in general. For that reason, I consider that it is crucial as a teacher to inspire lifelong engagement in science in young students’ lives and these books will help me achieve it.

Reading and sharing these books will extend and enhance the traditional elementary science and reading curriculum. They will offer opportunities to look inside different beautiful ecosystems through the their gorgeous illustrations which will encourage them to explore the world around them and appreciate the natural wonders they can discover and enjoy.
