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 Project

I have chosen these text to give my incoming 9th Grade students in a Literacy Supports class the right start to entering High School so that they feel supported, capable and seen! My Literacy support class is beginning with three texts that engage students in talking about the mental health of characters, but also to open them up to speaking about their own lived experiences. These texts differ from the content that students have read in the past, and have strong ties into what is happening in the world around them. By beginning with a unit centered around mental health, I want to foster awareness and discussions about mental health so that students understand that these are things that everyone goes through, and not taboo topics.

My students are from the West Bronx, they are resilient and strong, funny and smart.

They are deserving of this support from you, so I thank you!!!
