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 are first and foremost a wonderful and kind group of hardworking kids. They come to school every day with smiles on their faces and determination in their hearts. Our school is in a high poverty area. Many students face significant challenges at home. Despite these challenges, we work hard every day to challenge ourselves to grow both academically and socially.

Second grade is a crucial time for reading growth.

In 2nd grade, students are expected to master phonics and decoding skills so they can begin to apply those skills. Having access to authentic texts is crucial to showing students how they can apply their skills and how reading can open up new worlds for them.

My Project

My students are ripping through our classroom library! We read all day, not just during our literacy block! We read at breakfast, after recess, during lunch, and before going home! So we need more books to keep us interested. My students LOVE the Big Nate series so there are several new books from that series in the cart as well as more high-interest books for my lower readers. All readers need books that they can love and cherish, especially readers who may be struggling with the building blocks of literacy. These books will go a long way in helping my students to grow as readers and to develop a love of reading in second grade!
