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

How often can you travel to different places or learn why recycling is so important while reading a magazine? With Time For Kids, my students will be able to do just that!

I teach 28 kindergarten students in a Title I school in Brooklyn, New York.

My class is a mixture of special education and general education students. All of these children are enthusiastic about school and learning. They are like little sponges who question and want to know more about any given topic.

My Project

Many children do not know anything about our nation's colorful history or about the events and technologies shaping our country. This is because science and social studies (which includes current events), two very important subjects for the development of children, is being sacrificed. With Time for Kids, my students will be able to improve their reading comprehension skills, fluency, and improve vocabulary and decoding skills, while learning about new and exciting things in the fields of science and social studies. If given the chance to have subscriptions of Time for Kids sent to my classroom, I could, and would, implement the two very important subjects into the reading and writing curriculum. My students could learn all about the importance of recycling; and then write about why we need to do it. By reading these magazines, my students will also learn, firsthand, the difference between primary and secondary sources.

Is it possible to send us 28 subscriptions of Time for Kids?

With this type of literature, my students will be given the opportunity to learn science and social studies, while improving their reading abilities. These children are our future, but without the proper materials, where will they stand ten years from now?
