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 Project

The students in my 10th grade English classes deserve to learn in an environment that is welcoming, interesting and fun. Since COVID-19, students have struggled with reading and maintaining a reading level that is appropriate for their grade.

Once a week, we read quietly for an uninterrupted 20 minutes to promote positive reading practices.

The bean bag chairs will be used to create a reading corner in the classroom. The books will be available for them to check out. The art supplies and incentives will be used for projects and motivation.
