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 first grade students are a part of an integrated co-teaching classroom. We have students from all cultures who learn in different ways. This classroom allows them to explore early on, the variety of ways they can learn. Our school is located in Chelsea, Manhattan, a lively and vibrant neighborhood. With students just as lively and vibrant, we want to make sure we are catering their needs.

My students have large personalities, a trait that we want to continue to embrace to encourage confident and well-spoken community members.

They're excited to learn and motivated to be the best first graders they can be.

My Project

My first grade students are extremely curious community members. With weekly community walks and daily conversations on the various topics that may pop up, they continue to ask questions.

With Women's History Month coming up, I believe read-alouds with Little People, Big Dreams would benefit our conversations.

Not only are the books tailored to elementary students, but they allow students to connect to these inspiring women. With these books, I want to encourage my students to continue asking those important questions while learning more about the lives of these pioneers, philosophers and authors. Help my students discover the lives of these extraordinary people.
