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.

I am a second-grade teacher in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. As a New York City teaching fellow, I often get enthusiastic about exposing my students to the world outside of the classroom. However, although my intentions are grand, my funding is not. I recently exposed my students to a couple of issues of a children's magazine entitled "Time For Kids," Time magazine's version for young people. I had received complimentary copies in the mail and decided to share them with my students. The students simply loved them. Many of my students read them over and over again. It was such a joy to see my twenty-three underprivileged students take an interest in nonfiction texts. The magazine informs children of current events, at their own reading level. The publication is fun and colorful. The students are drawn to the articles, ideas, and photographs. My students would greatly appreciate their own subscriptions to "Time For Kids." The magazine would serve as a weekly reading assignment. Students will read the articles at home, and then come to school the next day to discuss what they have learned. The magazine will help to expose them to the world outside of the Marcy Projects. Please help my students explore the world beyond Brooklyn--with the help of "Time For Kids."
