Let’s Read!

My students need reading resources that grabs their attention and encourages reading. Scholastics magazines will captivate them and hopefully will show my families that reading can be fun.

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 at aTitle 1 school for a district that strives to help kids succeed, Long Beach Unified School district! Many of my students come from poverty level conditions and have emotional or physical conditions that get in the way of their learning. ADD and learning dissabilities provide challenges for our students who already are struggling. Trying to teach children who need additional support requires me, as their teacher, to ask for help. Sometimes children in this type of social economic status don’t have high expectations in regards to school. This is for them. These kids need to know there are people who care for their education, and I am their biggest cheerleader. They can have a different ending to their story.

My Project

Many of my students are not financially capable of buying books or reading magazines. Since many of my families are below poverty level and English Learners, I am trying to find ways to appeal reading to my families. I want my students to have access to great reading that will help them practice and be able to take their reading tests more confidently. It has been proven that nightly reading can assist with school success. Scholastics Magazines is an amazing resource that I hope you help me bring to my classroom. With this rescource I want my students to have fun reading at home and practicing their reading without even thinking about it.
