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 would like to create a book club in my high school at the Bronx to keep my students reading. I find that the best way to close the achievement gap is by finding engaging text to read with them. I hope that this book club creates a safe place for students to read and grow together.

My high school is located in the poorest neighborhood in the Bronx.

91% of my students require free or reduced lunch. My students are hungry learners and are so thankful for their limited resources. They all have great plans for going to college one day and I want to help achieve that. I am running a Book Club at my high school to make sure they can do so. My students are filled with energy everyday. They come in early and stay late for office hours. They are serious learners and they know how behind they are in reading, math and writing. I don't want the school system to fail them

My Project

I am requested 18 copies of 13 Reasons Why by Asher Lev. My students will be using this to talk about challenging topics that they or their peers may have faced. These topics include suicide, rape, betrayal, gossip and the pressures of school. I am hoping to create real conversations and to have my students open up to how they feel about different situations and what they would do to overcome it.

My students will be aware of their actions and how it affects others.

They will be able to express their thoughts in a respectful manner. They will learn how to respectfully disagree with a peer when challenging topics come up.
