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

The students really love coming to school. Our school is a Title I school with 100% free breakfast and lunch, which means that our students come from low-income families. They deal with a lot of stress at home and that stress most often comes with them when they enter the school building.

In my classroom, I focus on capturing the hearts of students by building meaningful relationships with each child.

Having a positive impact on our students is very important to every person who works at our school. We know that the stress that the kids bring with them from home can greatly impact how they learn. Teachers and staff strive each and every day to make sure that we speak to students in the hallways, we shake their hands as they enter the classrooms, we sit and talk with students at lunch, and we play with them at recess. We understand that our students come first. We understand that in order for us to be able to teach them, they have to feel safe and loved by the people around them. Each teacher at my school genuinely loves teaching!

My Project

My students have recently discovered the author Jacqueline Woodson. We were able to attend a live event where she talked about how she became a writer and my students have been so inspired by her.

My students love how relatable and real Jacqueline Woodson's stories are.

They have requested that we make a section in our classroom library dedicated to her. I would love some help adding these books to our classroom library to help encourage my students into reading more of her amazing books! These books will also be used for some projects and lessons surrounding acceptance and self-love.
