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
When I think about my students, I refer to the Star Wars quote, "The force is strong with this one" and switch it to "these ones." With that mantra, my students come to school willing to try their best. My students make me want to be a better teacher.
I have been fortunate to have taught for many years, but this year, anything that involves any long term, thematic projects lights my students' faces up.
Anything that has to do with hands-on lessons or activities, my students absorb it like sponges. I feel that a hands-on approach to learning will greatly benefit my students and their curiosity for learning.
My Project
My students need various graphic novels and comics to meet both the interests and needs of all my ELL students, and our classroom as a whole. I would like to start an after school club where students can check out these books, read them and have discussions about the characters and events.
Having these comics and graphic novels will help the reluctant reader continue to develop a passion for reading!
Students have a love for comics and graphic novels, therefore, I have selected a wide range of graphic novels and comics from many different genres, and some to help support the historical and scientific element of our class. Using graphic novels and comics are very effective literacy tools for English Language Learners (ELL students) and most kids. Having a collection of comics and graphic novels will keep the students exploring through new worlds, characters, and ideas for many years to come and it will be worth it.
