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 a diverse group of students who are curious, kind, smart, and funny. As a first-year teacher, I want to ensure that I can provide them with a safe and comfortable classroom, as well as the necessary tools to help them explore and learn about the world around them.

My Project

These books and resources will help to set-up my fifth-graders for book clubs. The bins will help to keep Post-it notes and highlighters easily accessible during book club discussions. The books are much requested series books that are needed to add to our libraries to be used for book clubs and independent reading.

Book series are a fantastic motivator in our book clubs.

Students love to follow a character across books to see how they develop and it makes for some great book discussions.

Having a supply of resources that students can use during book discussions such as Post-it notes and colored pens allows them to have everything easily accessible for a successful book discussion. Post-it notes are such a huge benefit to jot a quick note while reading and helps students remember what they would like to discuss with their book buddies later on.
