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 Project

Scholastic News will benefit my students by engaging them with current events, while also aiding in reading development. Scholastic News provides students with interesting topics to learn and discuss.

Help my students to learn about the world around them.

With Scholastic News, students will be able to develop their knowledge of current events. Students will be up to date with what is happening in the world, in a kid-friendly way.

What makes my students special is how appreciative they are, of what they have. I wish to give them access to more knowledge and information, because that is what they crave.
