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 belong to a very small Title I school in the largest school districts in Florida. My classroom is shared between twenty-five very inquisitive, 1st-5th grade gifted students. All of whom love to read, learn, and explore.
These kids come from very diverse backgrounds and deserve the best education I can provide.The desire to learn and excel from each student is something I admire and love to witness as their enrichment teacher.
I have worked extremely hard providing my classroom with as many learning materials as possible; however, there are a few that we need some assistance obtaining.
My Project
There is something special about using a read-aloud as an introduction before a new math concept, or using it to sum up a science lesson.
This year a goal of mine has been to use more read-aloud books in my math and science lessons to bring the curriculum to life and spark their curiosity.
All my students, regardless of the grade-level, LOVE to be read to. As a resource teacher, using the books will assist me in integrating reading with math and science . By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve student engagement and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
