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.
Our 2nd grade is full of 24 fun-loving kids who are full of energy. The students are an amazing group of kiddos from the Chicagoland area. They are excited about school and learning. They are a mix of 7 and 8 year olds who are loving their adventure in school.
Our students are eager and excited to learn and try new things on a daily basis.
They are on their way to becoming life-long lovers of learning. They attend a Chicago public school. We are one of the many low-income schools where a majority of our students receive free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch.
My Project
How do you create a classroom library that is both organized and enticing to young readers? You make over your library! We need new same colored baskets for our library books with a clear place to label what is what. We also need to new personal book bins where the students keep the books they are reading along with their reading folder and notebook.
I believe that a classroom library is the heartbeat of a teacher's environment.
It is the window into an educator's own personality, and it reflects the importance of literacy in the classroom.
My 2nd graders are eager to read and learn, having an organized library will help all of us know where everything is. We need some storage containers and drawers for our reading centers so we all can stay organized so we can use every minute of leaning time!
Our rolling cart will be like a mini supplies station on wheels. When working with a group everything we need for Reading that day/week will be in that cart.
A few new books by some great authors always make a classroom library and read aloud enjoyable! Books can take you to so many exciting places, help me take my kids on a Reading adventure!
