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

Literary Engagement: "Save Me a Seat" is a compelling novel that addresses themes of friendship, diversity, and overcoming challenges. By providing each student with a copy, they can engage deeply with the text, fostering comprehension and critical thinking.

Cultural Understanding: The book explores cultural differences and the immigrant experience, offering a valuable opportunity for students to broaden their understanding of diversity and empathy.

Language Development: Reading literature helps improve vocabulary, reading fluency, and language skills, which are essential for overall academic success.

My students come from various cultures and socio-economic backgrounds, this will provide a rich tapestry of experiences and perspectives. They are eager to learn and engage with meaningful literature that reflects their lives and the world around them.
