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 have a diverse and enthusiastic group of students who love learning and reading about the world around them. They really enjoyed scholastic news last year and they would love it again this year! It’s very difficult for parents to give money because of our population.

My Project

My students need Scholastic News to learn about the world around us. They are eager to learn new things and love nonfictional text. It’s difficult to find nonfiction at their reading level.

Scholastic News will give my students an opportunity to read about current events and science topics throughout the year.

They will read nonfiction texts on a regular basis and see photographs that will encourage curiosity and conversation.

They will love it when the new readers arrive and see the topics they will be learning about.

Students will be able to share their news with their family and friends at home.
