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

Eighth grade students are inquisitive, interactive and interested in cutting edge, identifiable characters who relate to their middle school experience. My students come from various backgrounds, as well as knowledge base and abilities - from IEPs to English Language learners to GATE students. They learn about others who experience similar cultures and group dynamics. Essentially, they crave to know that there are others...just like them.

Students love books with strong, engaging and identifiable charachters.

They identify with protagonist attributes who defy the odds and overcome obstacles, yet live "ordinary" lives. Students gain insight, knowledge and appreciation for those who journey beyond their limits. They gain a glimpse of themselves in rich, vivid detail and well written story lines.

My Project

As teachers, parents, aunt/uncles and grandparents, we know the importance of a solid education and hard work. We teach, model and read with our young ones in order to help form solid habits. As they grow into adolescents, students continue to need our support in maintaining a positive outlook on reading, just in a different way. Allowing students to read and collaborate with their peers is what is most important to them at this stage in their lives.

By incorporating book clubs into the 8th grade English Language Arts classroom, we continue to show our younger generation that reading is an important part of their continued growth and learning.
