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
Hello! We are a second grade class made up of 25 unique students. Our school is located in the South Bronx. My students know that they can always count on school being that constant in their lives.
We are super eager learners.
They are very eager readers, writers, mathematicians, scientists, and historians. They rip the library apart on a daily basis as they try and locate their next reading adventure. They are always excited to get their ideas down on paper regardless if its writing, social studies, or math. There are future scientists in this classroom who will be very successful dealing with electricity or out in the wilderness identify different animal adaptations. What can I say? We are great!
My Project
It is so important to me to instill a love of reading in my students. Making sure that our classroom library has engaging and exciting books will heighten my students interests towards reading.
This project will provide different levels and series of books that my students are excited for and want to read.
Giving my readers opportunities to read books that they want will encourage the excitement of reading.
Some of these purchases will also provide multiple copies in our libraries which will encourage partner reading. They will then be able to share their thinking and feelings of reading with their friends.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
