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

When I took over as yearbook advisor last fall, getting a book completed, much less a book we would be proud of, was not a forgone conclusion. We didn't even have working cameras.

"Every time I see that book, I am so proud," said one of my yearbook editors when our books came in last May.

We managed, with no funding and few supplies, to make a product we were proud of, but now we want to move our program to the next level.

My Project

My students in Introduction to Journalism are learning about the importance of journalism and media in our 21st century world. We will read The Help to both increase their literacy and exposure to good writing and to lead us into a discussion on ethical and responsible journalism.

With information at our fingertips through websites, television, and social media, student journalists need to be able to distinguish for themselves the difference between reputable journalism and the sensational media that we are often bombarded with.

Reading The Help will allow students to see the important role that reputable journalists play in telling stories that document what's important at this moment in time.
