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 First Grade students who are curious about the world and community around them. They are growing their reading skills and are excited about using their reading skills to learn about the world they live in. They are also eager to incorporate their learning into their developing writing skills.
My students will begin the year learning in their homes with distance learning which will last until local health conditions deem it safe.
My students will have tablets, WiFi and approximately one textbook provided by the district. Our district is facing a massive budget shortfall and I, like most teachers, are being forced to pay out of pocket to ensure adequate and equitable learning supplies for all students.
My Project
As my students continue to participate in Distance Learning, I want to be able to engage them in high quality social studies and science nonfiction reading. These Scholastic News and Science Spin subscriptions will enrich my students through providing access to fun and interesting stories about neighborhoods and communities, the world we live in and plants and animal needs.
Scholastic News and Science Spin will allow me as a teacher to provide cross-curricular reading activities and extensions that will help students be able to ask and answer questions about the people, places and creatures in the world around them.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
