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 teach in Harlem in NYC. My classroom is a co-taught classroom that services both special needs students and general education students. I have 16 students in my classroom. Of those 16 students we have many diverse needs. Some students have autism, some are english language learners, some are typically developing yet all of them are absolutely amazing in their own way. Creative, spunky, funny, inquisitive, caring, curious are just a few adjectives to describe the class of characters I have.

My Project

We are requesting books and supplies that will enhance the print rich classroom environment we are building for our students. The classroom library is our special place. It's the area where our students engage in independent reading, shared reading and read alouds. All of these books and other supplies have been chosen with our students in mind. Careful consideration was given regarding their interests, reading levels and preferred genres. They are a very motivated group of students who deserve access to materials that will continue to inspire their learning. These new books will allow our students to be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level. Our students have already shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
