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

What a group! I teach third and fourth grade students in a self-contained 12:1:1 classroom. They are so special!

I often tell my students "Don't study to earn, study to learn because what you learn today is what you will become tomorrow."

For the first time in my teaching career, I am teaching students who favor all academic subjects. They enjoy sharing their individuality and uniqueness when we engage in our lively social studies or reading conversations.

I admire them collectively on one particular character trait that is so essential to success in learning -- confidence!

My goal, as their teacher, is to direct their confidence to enhance their drive to learn and succeed in my classroom.

My Project

The materials requested will be tremendously useful in my classroom. I plan to use the magnetic letters in my guided reading groups for my special needs students, who are extremely below grade level. Quality literacy books will motivate them to reach the appropriate common core reading and writing level standards. These books will also be used to address social emotional needs by teaching them about important life skills and self awareness. These books will also become available for my students to have a variety of interesting books available for independent reading.
