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

My students are amazing individuals that need hands-on opportunities to feel successful! I teach mostly English language learners at a Title I school, and our current curriculum is too difficult to tackle at this part of the school year.

Help me differentiate their intervention to meet their needs and create lifelong learners!

My students come to school each day excited to learn, but unfortunately that excitement dwindles away when confronted with the harsh reality that they need a lot of remedial support. More of the same is not what they need - innovative intervention is needed to make them succeed in school. Together, we can make their academic success a reality!

My Project

Help refresh my library with some new high interest books! There's no substitution to when reluctant readers find a book that peak their interest. I am trying to bring in a variety of new titles to see if I can increase the amount of reading within my classroom.

Reluctant readers need motivation!

I am hoping to spark some motivation with these graphic novels and eye captivating non fiction books. With the increase in popularity of some recent movies, I am certain these new titles will appeal to my students. Many of my intervention students are boys who have yet to connect to a book. My motivation is once they connect, I can hook them into the wonderful world of reading!
