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 Students

Our school is dedicated to teaching everyone through project-based learning as a social justice educational tool. We are a progressive, public, charter school devoted to teaching every child the skills and concepts they need to be successful in our ever-changing world.

We have created an engaging, interactive online learning program but cannot replicate the materials and books we have in the classroom.

We serve a large Mexican American population, as well as a diverse group of families in the North County San Diego area. First and foremost, my students need to be reading every day to be prepared for fourth grade. While they do have access to books online, there are complications: 1) Not everyone has consistent internet access, (2) sometimes siblings are sharing devices, and (3) nothing replaces a real book for kids' development.

We do not receive as much funding as local public schools and do not burden our parents with expenses; therefore, we are responsible for our own classroom materials. Now we face a real challenge with our school closed, and students at home with limited resources. Please help them by helping me get books and other items into their hands.

My Project

TOON Books’ mission is to create high-quality comics that are loved by kids and teachers alike. They believe that making meaning out of reading with the aid of visuals may be the best way to become a lifelong reader, one who knows how to read for pleasure and for information—a reader who loves to read. That sounds pretty perfect to me, and I know my students would love to read them.

I want to take advantage of this special offer from TOON Books, and this crucial time to keep kids reading at home.

Please help us help our students while our school doors are closed, and keep the passion for reading alive!
