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 school is very diverse in that we have many English Language Learners which make up almost half the population of our school. Also, we are an all kindergarten school made up of approximately five hundred 5 and 6-year-olds. That's a lot of little bodies that can be influenced in a positive way.

I teach eighteen enthusiastic, eager, and energetic kindergartners at a Title I school.

Our school is in a very low socioeconomic community. Because we are in a high poverty community, all students at our school receive free breakfast and lunch through the community eligibility program. Most of my students have not had the opportunity to attend pre-k or had significant learning experiences in their homes.

My Project

I love reading to my students every day. I know and see firsthand the value in allowing children to learn concepts through picture books that are visually appealing.

Reading aloud to my students is my favorite part of the day!

I love sharing adventures with my students through picture books especially when they help with skills and concepts I am teaching. Picture books are great for my English-language learners to help them visualize what is happening in a book and that's one reason I love reading picture books daily.

Reading to children is so important. As teachers we have a great responsibility and I do not take it lightly. I hope to instill a love for learning through reading with my students.
