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

I love how curious, creative, and eager to learn my students are. They come to school each day full of questions, ideas, and a desire to explore the world through stories and science. After eight years of teaching middle school, I have been assigned to 3rd grade. I would like to develop that same excitement and love for reading in my new 3rd-grade class.

A new collection of fun, diverse books will help my third graders grow as readers while inspiring their imagination.

The addition of a cozy rug will transform the reading area into a welcoming space where students can relax, focus, and truly enjoy reading. This comfortable environment encourages a love for literacy and helps students associate reading with joy and discovery. I have also added tools needed to help students focus on their learning.
