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 teach 16 amazing students in a Title One school. Most of our students come from hard working families who try their best to provide their children with the tools they need. However, many times we have to help them at school with the learning tools as well. Our students have limited experiences beyond their neighborhoods. They don't always have access to visiting the library or technology resources at home. At school they know they have a safe, caring environment where they can learn and get the help they need.

My Project

I have taught intermediate grades for the last 12 years, now I am teaching second and our classroom library does not have a large selection of books on their level. The books I am requesting have been carefully selected based on my students' reading interests and levels. They use independent reading time daily to help build comprehension and fluency skills at a level that is most appropriate for their reading development. Adding these books to our classroom will provide more opportunities for reading and growth in my students.

Each year my goal as a teacher is to instill a love of reading in all my students.

We use a motivational program to help encourage our students to read. I foresee my students discovering characters and genres they love and becoming intrinsically motivated to read with the addition of these books. In addition, we will begin to develop reading stamina by using the chapter books to help my second graders learn how to read longer texts and retain the information read.
