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

For many students in NYC, kindergarten is their first school experience. I want to have a classroom that these students will never forget!

My students are in a dual language classroom where they are instructed one day in English and the other day in Spanish.

They are children of mostly Spanish speaking homes and being exposed to English text and the English language for the first time in kindergarten. It is not only important to get them literate in the English language, but to also foster their native language as well. The goal is to have a generation of bilingual, biliterate, and bicultural students.

My Project

My students attend a Title I school. Most of my students come from low income households. They do not visit the local library very often at all. I am aiming to create an environment where reading is fun and comfortable.

These items will create a comfortable and cozy environment.

If the students feel at home in their classroom, then they will want to learn. Most of the seating will go in our library area. The library should be comfortable and condusive to reading and learning. Students will want to sit and curl up with a book if they know their library is welcoming and comfortable.
