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 live in a high poverty neighborhood in south Philadelphia. We are an extremely diverse group - we speak 7 different languages at home, and are from many different countries!

My students are fantastic readers and writers, but are still acquiring many English vocabulary words.

I want to give them the opportunity to self-select books that use visuals to support their reading comprehension, so that they can fully lose themselves in a book and build a lifetime love of reading.

My Project

My students love reading - they are quickly going through our classroom library, and loving every minute of it!

But with more than half my class being English Language Learners, I know many students often struggle with reading comprehension.

Graphic novels help them better understand what they're reading as well as acquire new vocabulary words, as visual support their reading comprehension. The graphic novels in our library are always the first books snapped up when students choose new books, and I'd love to refresh and diversify what we have on hand.

Your donation will help 27 voracious readers in our fourth grade class continue to build their literacy skills.
