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

I am a seventh-grade social studies teacher for an inner-city school. My students come from a wide variety of backgrounds, some are refugees and some have been in this city for generations. We have 100% free and reduced lunches for our students.

Both my students and I walk in every day ready to meet the challenges that we both throw at each other.

They begin each day with their own challenges and baggage. Did they get breakfast? Did their siblings eat and make it to school on time? This is where we meet at 8 o'clock each weekday morning. We then must work through all of this and begin our attempts at learning. My goal every day, is for us to have a place where the students can leave their baggage at the door and learn something new from each other.

I try to include chances for us to be creative, to break up long days of sitting quietly with projects and interactive elements. Each day is a brand-new experience, and an opportunity for all of us to learn from each other.

My Project

My students learn about the Revolutionary War. We usually read a novel connected to the unit, but for a more exciting take on the novel I wanted to add a variety of graphic novels on the subject.

With the graphic novels, the students will be able to read a greater variety of exciting information in the same amount of time as our old dry novel from the past.With the ability to read several different graphic novels in small group settings, I can ensure that all of the students are being reached regardless of their language issues.

Additionally, groups can be created to peer teach and present their given information to the class.
