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

I teach language arts and social studies to the entirety of the fifth grade at my school. My kids are split between three class periods and a homeroom. At any given time my classroom has 22 lively and lovable kids, each with their own unique personality and skills. Some of my fifth graders are above the fifth-grade curriculum while others are still building their fifth-grade skills, but all of them come to school excited to learn.

No matter what is going on at home or what skills they currently have, my students are energetic and eager to learn and be together as a group.

All of my students love school and strive to do their best each day. They all care about one another and our classroom family and work together to help one another become successful. What I love most about my students are the different strengths they all bring to our classroom. I am very proud of how hard they have been working and their perseverance as they handle the changes this school year has brought.

My Project

My students are terrific kids; no matter what is happening in their lives outside of school, they try their best in the classroom. Many of my students have discovered that reading can transport you to a different world even when you're physically stuck in your situation.

Because of this my students have become serious readers who want nothing more than to devour the next book.

Unfortunately, the teacher who left took all of her books with her and I do not have the ability to supply the massive library that my students deserve in a quick amount of time on a new teacher's salary.

Please consider donating to a project that will help students uncover their love of reading for years to come.
