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 Project
What I love most about my students is their curiosity and their unique perspectives on the world around them. They each come with their own stories, experiences, and backgrounds that enrich our classroom environment. Witnessing them engage with new ideas and challenge their own assumptions is truly rewarding. Their enthusiasm for learning, especially when driven by their personal interests, inspires me to find ways to cultivate that love of knowledge and exploration in every lesson. By providing them with books of their choice, I aim to empower them, allowing them to connect with literature that resonates with their lives and aspirations.
Books are transformative tools that can ignite a passion for reading and learning in my students.
When they can choose what they read, they are more likely to become deeply engaged, which enhances their comprehension and critical thinking skills. These texts not only offer knowledge and insight but also serve as mirrors and windows, reflecting their own experiences while exposing them to diverse cultures and ideas. Through this project, I hope to make reading an integral part of their lives, showing them the joys, challenges, and possibilities that literature can offer—ultimately helping shape them into well-rounded individuals.
My goal with this project is to foster a love for reading that extends beyond the classroom, equipping my students with the skills necessary to navigate their futures while also cultivating empathy and understanding for others. Each one of my students is special—they bring enthusiasm, creativity, and resilience into our learning space. By encouraging them to choose their own books, I not only validate their interests but also empower them to take ownership of their learning journey. Ultimately, I want to help them recognize the transformative power of reading, guiding them toward becoming lifelong learners and compassionate members of society.
