Help me give my students Time for Kids magazines to integrate into our curriculum and support instruction in all subject areas and to teach students about current events during the year.

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
My students live in a low socioeconomic and often rough area of Los Angeles. Although they do not live in the best of neighborhoods, I strive to give them the best education for a brighter future.
My students are 24 energetic, inquisitive, smart 5-6-year-old students from diverse backgrounds in the dual language program.
They consist of 50% English Language Learners with a Latino background and 50% English only students with Latino and African American backgrounds. I love that my students are diverse in their backgrounds and in their Spanish abilities. They are able to learn from each other as they begin their journey into bi-literacy and bilingualism.
My Project
These magazines will be a weekly activity for my dual language students. The magazines will support the instruction in the classroom because they are based on subject areas taught in kindergarten and also relate to current events and holidays during the month. Not only is this magazine informative and engaging, but it will support English language development and vocabulary with all the visual images. I also love that as a teacher, I have access to extra digital material to support instruction of the various topics. Another fabulous aspect of these magazines is that students can take it home to re-read, practice, and share with family members.
