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.
My Students
Our school is celebrating over one hundred twenty-five years of educational service to South Philadelphia families. We welcome, support, and educate the children of many ethnicities, as well as continuing to serve the third and fourth generations of earlier immigrants. We are a Title I school with 100% of our students coming from economically disadvantaged families. Our school currently serves over five hundred children, K-6. Many of our students are English language learners, and there are 20 different language groups in my school. We celebrate the rich diversity of our school community.
My Project
In sixth-grade, my students no longer learn to read. Instead they read to learn. My students will read the Super Science magazines independently, in small groups, and in whole class discussions to improve their reading, math, and science knowledge. Research has shown that all students can learn when engaged. Scholastic offers high interest articles and activities about the world around them. Many articles contribute to lively class discussions and to the development of socially conscience opinions. Super Science magazine helps educators capture the excitement of science. Every issue is filled with incredible life, earth, and physical science topics that engage students.
Super Science magazine is an exciting way for students to learn about life, earth, and physical science concepts they need to know for 6th grade.
Each issue features exciting science current events and amazing photos that engage students and support the curriculum.
It is wonderful to see the excitement on my students faces when we receive our monthly magazine from Scholastic. Research has shown that all students can learn when they are engaged. Won't you please help us get our hands on this wonderful resource?
