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.
Currently I teach 16 seventh and eighth graders in the inner city in Chicago, and all of them have a diagnosed disability ranging from specific learning disabilities, other health impairments, and emotional disabilities. Many of my students are experiencing traumatic issues at home, and upon returning to school from being at home during the pandemic, my students are more in need than ever for a safe, comfortable space in school that promotes both academic and social emotional skills.
Many of my students are also English Language Learners where the predominant language spoken at home is Spanish.
Most of the students in our school receive free or reduced lunch, and resources provided by the school are so appreciated by parents and community members. Our school has great community involvement and huge heart.
My Project
Our students are struggling readers who are looking for an immersive experience into literature. My co-teacher and I want to transform our classroom into Hogwarts and engage students in literary and writing assignments that are highly motivating and interesting.
None of our middle school students have ever read Harry Potter, so as we embark on a journey into this magical world, we want our students to engage in hands-on, magical and imaginative experiences and activities related to the novel.
Floating candles, hanging banners, wand pencils, interactive novel unit activities... Hogwarts here we come!
