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.
My Students
My students are a wonderful group of third graders. They come to school ready and eager to learn. They are bright, curious, and love to learn. We are a Title I school and have a high population of low socioeconomic families. Yet, our families love and care very much for their children and want the best education for them. Our students deserve to have every opportunity to be academically successful. They deserve to have updated technological tools like other schools in our area.
My Project
My students and I need books to read with more diversity and multicultural themes. Students need to learn at a young age how to treat others that may be a difference from themselves. We are a multicultural world and we need to learn to all work together in order to live productive and successful lives. My students would be able to read these stories of perseverance and courage to help them better understand these champions of civil rights. Students will learn character traits that lead to institutional change for the betterment of our society.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
