Celebrating 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.
Everyone has a story... we are the authors of our lives. Our class consists of 25 fifth graders from various backgrounds.
Our school serves a large number of kids with high-need and our classroom has several children with special needs as well as English Language Learners. Despite the obstacles, our kids LOVE to write. They all have exceptional stories to tell.
We are in need of books to read aloud that exemplify techniques that real authors use to create a piece of writing. Using authentic text will inspire the children to think of themselves as authors and encourage them to use the same techniques.
Your contribution will ensure that our kids have opportunities to connect with powerful literature and apply what they observe to their own writer's craft. Writer's are born in moments of inspiration and YOU can be a part of that magic!
