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

My students are a diverse population of enthusiastic dual language learners who care about social issues and about all their classmates being treated equally and feeling included in our learning environment. My students have been in a Dual Language program for most of their educational experience at our Title I school in Brooklyn.

Thanks to that, my students have developed very positive attitudes about other languages and cultural backgrounds as well as toward themselves as learners.

Over the years, they have become more self-confident and better prepared to engage in a global society that values multiculturalism and multilingualism.

My fourth graders always enjoy learning new things, and like meeting and interacting with children and grown-ups from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds.

My Project

These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy—we sit around the perimeter of my classroom for read alouds, we have class discussions there, and they read independently in their reading spots! Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. All of these books have been chosen with my students in mind: I have watched them the past few weeks of school read titles just like these, and I have also asked them what type of books they would enjoy reading. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.

With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently at their own grade level.

They will also be able to choose books that interest them. The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
