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.
With the appropriate resources, and sound instruction, yes, all children can be successful learners. I am a second grade bilingual inclusion (special education & general education) teacher. You can only imagine the varying degrees of differentiation needed in order to properly teach, instruct and guide my students. This year, my students ranged from seven to ten years of age. Many of them entered my class as non-readers and will continue to third grade reading on a second grade level. Yes!!! I am proud, however, as I loop with my students and follow them to third grade, I am concerned about the lack of books in my classroom.
My school suffered from asbestos last year and tons of books were thrown away. When I entered P.S. 132, of course I had the pleasure of being placed in the corner classroom on the fifth floor, which had more asbestos than any other classroom in the entire building. All of the books in my classroom were thrown away. I began the school year with a library totaling twenty-seven books. During the month of September, I worked tirelessly to get books from wherever possible. I went to street fairs, visited parents' basements, other classrooms, and of course, I asked my assistant principal to order books for my classroom, which after several requests she did. I still need more.
Under the Teachers College (TC) Readers' and Writers' Workshop curriculum, there are many genres, including series books and non-fiction books. In order to effectively teach under the TC curriculum I need the appropriate materials. My students would benefit substantially from having series and non-fiction books.
In my classroom, we have a ladder of success. Our goal as readers is to move up one and one half grade levels. In my classroom I have books only up to level 7, which is second grade. I was unable to move certain students up because I do not have the necessary books for guided reading. Please help!!!!! My students and I would greatly appreciate any assistance you could provide. Once I increase the amount of books in my classroom, my students will continue to thrive in my third grade class. Thank you in advance for your consideration!!
