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 two sixth-grade language arts and United States history classes are part of a diverse and vibrant school community. We are a small school of choice located in the beautiful city of Coral Gables, FL. Like the size of the school, the staff is small but mighty. I could be biased, but I believe you could not find a group of more dedicated professionals who are committed to providing students with stellar, well-rounded educational experiences. In addition to our staff, our parent and community stakeholders consistently work to maintain an authentic partnership with the school that is both supportive and collaborative in nature.

Within the beautiful school community, I have the privilege of working with groups of students that are dynamic, curious and wonderfully unique.

They challenge me as a teacher and compel me to seek out educational opportunities that will fuel their zeal to learn and achieve at the highest levels. I welcome the challenge and constantly seek out opportunities and resources that will assist me in providing optimal learning experiences.

My Project

This project includes the purchase of five sturdy bookcases to house the books in our classroom library.

The bookcases will improve the functionality and organization of our reading area which is the first step in the ultimate goal of creating a cozy, inviting place in our classroom where students can sit and enjoy a wonderful book!

One of my goals as a language arts and US History teacher is to provide students with a classroom library that contains high-quality, independent reading materials held within a beautiful and functional space. The five bookcases will take us a step closer to accomplishing this goal.
