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.
I teach in an inner-city school that 90% of students are on free or reduced lunch. This upcoming school year I will be teaching ELA to first and second-grade students. The building I teach in has recently opened back as a charter school that serves students K-8. As a result, the uniformity of supplies is limited.
I want my students to know the importance of reading, but I do not have the materials necessary to reach their full potential.
I want my students to always feel eager to grab a book and read.
My Project
Reading is very important for students, especially at a younger age. Our goal as educators is for students to become independent learners and that requires them to be able to read independently.
The classroom library will become a place where students can begin reading independently.
My students will be able to choose from a variety of books because of the multiple book bins. The bookshelf has plenty of space for me to add multiple bins. They will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.
