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 represent an amazing wealth of culture, languages and history. Their families are amazingly supportive and are very involved in their child's education. My classroom comprises mostly of students with disabilities and English as a Second Language. We are a Title I school in a community where parents opt to come to our school because they want the best for their children. Our school is like a home away from home, as it is a Pre-K to fifth grade public school and you can often see siblings and family members all around, which gives everyone a sense of an extended family. I love it!

My Project

We want books that are both windows and mirrors for our students, books that reflect who they are and who they can become in the world. My school is in a high needs district, with 100% of our students receiving free and reduced-price lunch. Over 60% of the children in my school speak more than one language and are learning English. We want them to have joyful learning opportunities as they learn to make their way in the world. Our students need beautiful picture books to inspire them to dream big.
