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

Students on our campus have amazing potential. They are waiting to be guided and eager to learn. As the school year begins the potential for success awakens and I would definitely love to offer my students the ability to work with the technology needed to be competitive with the ever-changing world surrounding them. My students have limited experiences and are from low socioeconomic backgrounds. They just need that one individual willing to invest and believe in their ability to unlock their potential. They have dreams for a better future. Through the use of technology, I would be able to offer them a virtual experience that awaits them.

My Project

Students are encouraged to checkout books from the classroom library for the self-selected reading time. Offering them extra titles will be important for them to have choices from which to choose which will lead to greater engagement. Students are offered 15 minutes of uninterrupted reading time daily. The places and joy as they read books of their interest will be experiences that they will never forget. The more students read the greater connection they will make to other text thus expanding their knowledge and awareness to the world around them. Students are more engaged when reading titles or their choice and this collection will help me increase the choices I can offer.
