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

I work with a very vibrant bunch of 4th graders. There is never a dull moment in our classroom. They are more like one big family, than they are classmates. They argue with one another, but they care for and love one another even more. All 25 of them bring so much joy to my life in their own special way and I want nothing more than to provide them with a rich academic learning environment.

My fabulous fourth graders continue to shine despite some of the struggles that they face both in and out of the classroom.

I work in a Title I school where all of my students receive free or reduced-price lunch.

My students and I are very close, not just because we see each other everyday, but because we have something special in common. We all speak two languages, both Spanish and English. My students were so happy to find out that I shared their home language with them and in return they have felt safe to be open and honest with me about everything. I honestly could not have asked for a better group of scholars!

My Project

My students and I are starting the school year in a brand new school and we are all so excited. Unfortunately, we don't currently have a variety of books that are age appropriate for them.

I want my students to develop a love for reading and it's very hard to do this without being able to expose them to exciting and rich texts.

This project means so much to not only me, but my entire class because it would allow them to explore books that are engaging and support my students' interests.

I am requesting six leveled libraries and 31 books including Amber Brown Is Not A Crayon, Jake Drake, Bully Buster, and The Chalk Box Kid. The books would be used every day as my students will have time for free choice and independent reading. With this project, I believe I will be able to support my students as they read to succeed.
