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.
We focus on becoming mathematicians, letter investigators, reading experts, authors, global citizens, scientists, and engineers in our classroom. My goal is to share experiences that some may not have the chance to experience because of their diverse backgrounds. Some come from a low socio-economic (low SES) background, are recipients of free or reduced-price lunch, or are English Language Learners (ELL), while others are Spanish Language Learners (SL). Every day, they must overcome adversity to reach their goals.
My students have become invested in their learning and become problem solvers and collaborators.
They are committed to coming to school every day ready to learn and do their best. By mastering our academic goals and standards and gaining strong character qualities, my students will be set up for success. My students will be impacted in a way that will push them to the next level to be college-ready. They will have more ways to demonstrate their knowledge and ways of thinking. First grade is such a valuable asset and so very important to set them up for success. It gives them a solid foundation academically that they will need for the rest of their academic journey.
My Project
We would love to add these books to use as read alouds across the curriculum. We use read alouds in order to integrate Science and Social Studies into our Reading and Writing portions of our day.
Being able to dive into a book, read and discuss or draw about it is so fun!
By integrating core materials, we are able to use our time wisely and still cover the skills we need to cover. We all love listening to stories read out loud, especially my Spanish learners, who are able to make connections and weed out cognates to better understand a story.
