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 Students

When you are one of our students, you are part of the family. Our school has a tradition of pride and excellence, as well as a tight-knit community. Our students love to participate in learning opportunities of all kinds, especially reading experiences that deepen their knowledge and connect them with others, their community, and with history.

Our students are in two categories: voracious readers or future voracious readers.

Our community efforts are often literacy-centered, service-centered, or designed to enrich their academic curiosities and course work such as exploration, clubs, or reading in a group so they can enjoy and learn together. Our students have enjoyed multiple monthly book clubs, which have both motivating and propelled reading. Our students love to read, discuss books and current events, meet authors and come out to author visits, both in person and virtual. Right now, virtual meetings are our only option, but we will take it!

My Project

From the first day of school, students have been pouring into our school library requesting specific books. After the heavy, eighteen months they have had, they are ready to read uplifting, fun and adventurous books! They want lots of heart warming titles including romance and love stories. Many of these titles are also books that help them build on their specific interests such as relationships, health, anatomy and physiology, mechanical engineering and Manga art! These titles are all specifically requested by my high school students hoping to read books together in groups, as well as individually.
