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 class consist of 30 students that have reading ranges from 3.5-8.0. Most of my students entered our school with below grade level reading.

My scholars are the readers of today striving to become the leaders of tomorrow.

We thrive off of the wins of others and continually push each other to be our absolute best on a daily basis. We have set our bar extremely high for the success of our peers and our community of East Los Angeles.

My Project

I am asking for several popular sets of books to push my new scholars in our Literacy class. These students will be with me for 3 years and I hope to provide them with several opportunities and book choices to push their literacy to the next level.

This is a special group of kids since it is their first time back on campus since the 4th grade, and I would love to give them something tangible to read and give them that authentic feeling of flipping through a great novel and/or short story.

I hope to use these books for the next three years.

Please help these kids raise the literacy bar even higher in East Los Angeles by helping me provide these books for this amazing group of scholars.
