Help me give my students books to learn about the countries their families come from, and blank books to create their own books!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Ehrlich's classroom raised $406
This project is fully funded
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
I believe that every student should walk into a well-stocked classroom where they will always have the supplies to create, learn, and explore new ideas.
Welcome to a third grade, bilingual classroom full of hard-working, enthusiastic students!
My bilingual classroom is the landing spot for third graders who have just arrived in the United States. My students are incredibly hard workers who always come to school ready to learn, no matter what is going on outside of the classroom. My goal as a teacher is to provide my students with all that they need to be successful learners.
My Project
My students love reading about the countries that their families come from. They also love to share facts about their cultures, and are so proud when they can share these facts. Each year, as a culminating project, I ask students to research the countries their families come from. After conducting research and interviewing their family members, my students create their own books about these countries to keep and show to their family. I still have the one I myself made in my own third grade class!
With these books, students can learn more about their country, culture and history, and bring their cultures into the classroom!.
With your support, my students will become published authors by using the blank books to create informational books about these countries. This project will allow my students to develop invaluable reading, writing and research skills, and express themselves through art as they design, write, and illustrate books about their own countries.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
