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

My class consists of 45 hard-working students who put their heart into everything they do! Most of them are English language learners meaning that their primary language is not English. Because of this, they learn best through visual representation and hands-on activities. The students that will benefit from this project are super dedicated and want to learn. They love math and science and they have the greatest personalities!

My Project

As an educator I am constantly trying to find ways to teach my students the things they need to know using learning strategies that they enjoy. This is exactly why this Learning Science Libraries book set will be so helpful to our classroom. I am wanting to provide my students with grade level books about the science topics we are discussing in class. My students love to read and will tackle any book that they can get their hands on. With a library of books from a variety of science topics they will not only have the opportunity to develop their reading skills, but they will also be learning in a way that they enjoy.
