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.
Most of my students come from low income families right outside of Dallas, TX.
They are a group of amazing kids who I just want to give the best classroom experience possible.
All of the students come from different backgrounds and ethnicities. It is an amazing combination of cultures!
I want to be able to give them opportunities to read high interest books. I want to expand my collection of novels to keep up with new releases throughout the year. Keeping the novels fresh will give students the chance to read current books that they can connect with easier.
For the past two years we have held fundraisers to raise money to make hygiene packs for the homeless. My students even though some go without, they are always willing to help their community in any way.
They also used their creative juices to create Children's Books using a big idea or theme from a novel that was read.
My students are big thinkers and want to create a better future for themselves and others.
My Project
I am striving to create a classroom where reading is fun and interesting. A reading class that is not "boring," but one that takes students on adventures where they never have to leave school.
Giving students who may not have been given the best cards a chance to explore and get lost in novels they make come to life sets them up for a future of creativity and knowledge.
I know that getting these books will have a huge impact by giving the students a chance to read topics of high interest. Everyone could use a break from the world.
