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 bright and energetic kindergarten students. They come to school each day ready to learn. Most of my students come to me with limited or no English skills.

My students are immigrants from other countries and are limited in the English language.

Their parents have brought them to America to make a better life for their families. My students work hard to learn English while also learning reading, writing, math, science, and social studies. They come to school with a passion to learn. I do my best every day to keep this fire for learning burning bright.

My Project

These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy-I read on the carpet to them, they complete work there, and they read independently! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind-I picked books that will continue to enhance their curiosity and increase their academic achievement by providing books that they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.

With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level.

They will also be able to choose books that interest them. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
