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 have a great group of children this year! They are eager to learn and love to read! Our school is 100 percent free and reduced lunch and many of the students are struggling just to bring in basic school supplies. Many of the students don't have many books at home to read. They love getting books as prizes and they enjoy looking at different types of reading materials. They really seem to like reading our various classroom magazines so I know they will love Scholastic News!
My Project
Every year my students love receiving their weekly edition of Scholastic News! They are so excited to learn new things and the especially love that they can take their articles home to share with their families.
We also take advantage of the online component of Scholastic News!
Many of the students are English language learners. They are able to go online and listen to the article in Spanish before we read it as a group in English. This helps them to expand their vocabularies in both English and Spanish! There are also fun videos that go along with the articles to help engage the students and give them background information about the weekly topic.
Scholastic News covers many of the informational reading standards as well as many of the social studies standards. It is great for teaching non-fiction text features and allows the children to "experience" things that they may never be able to see.
