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 teach tenth-grade Intensive Reading in a large district in Central Florida. This school is labeled as a Title I school, meaning that the school receives additional funding because of the poverty in the area. The town is known to have many Non-English speaking citizens. One hundred percent of our students receive free breakfast and lunch, with many getting backpacks of food to take home on the weekends. Many families are homeless, live in a hotel, or share housing with another family. The students are underprivileged but eager to learn. The students are kind and respectful towards me. Most of the students are the first in their family to graduate high or attend college.

The students that come through my doors are willing to learn every day.

I have a great group of students that choose to make the right choices and complete assignments. We have fun in the classroom while learning the necessary standards.

Having a positive environment around campus can influence the students to make the right choice and brighten their day.

My Project

The way the world is going, social injustice is a huge topic. My students read The Hate U Give last year and fell in love with reading. I feel that this book will continue their love for reading! Getting 10th graders to read is a large feat.

With these new books, my students will continue learning about the social injustices that are happening in the world today.

My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
