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

The only non-textbook reading materials I have for my English language learner students are National Geographic magazines that are older than they are!

Our school is an inner-city Title I school with a large Hispanic and English language learner population.

The school has recently implemented the turnaround intervention model- students are excited to see the new direction the school is taking. Our school is emphasizing literacy in all classes.

My Project

I have no books in Spanish- I hope that this will not only increase my students' reading comprehension skills, but foster a love of reading in my reluctant readers! I've chosen books that I think my students will enjoy reading, I've either read them or heard good things about every book I've selected. Literacy skills are transferrable across languages- if my students learn to love reading in their first language, a love of reading in English is sure to follow.

This will change my students' lives- I have a classroom full of students that are convinced that they don't like to read.

I want to show them how enjoyable reading is! I hope to have libraries of Spanish, English, and bilingual books, but books in Spanish are the most critical right now.
