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 school is a Title I school where 100% of our students receive free breakfast and lunch. Our school population is majority Latino, but we do service African American, Caucasian, Muslim, and Chinese families. Students come into the classroom every day ready to learn, and for many of my students, I am their gateway to an academically enriched environment.

My prekindergarten students are young explorers and demand to be challenged and engaged at all times, my classroom is an adventure every day.

My Project

Reading is the gateway to excellence. Learning to read is a stepping stone for creating an enjoyable school experience for young children. The materials requested will allow my children to begin the process of learning how to read and prepare them for kindergarten.

Being able to learn the skills of reading will help develop listening skills, expand vocabulary and language development.

My classroom is filled with hands-on experiences and adding Little Leveled Readers book set will expand their language and cognitive development throughout the school year and beyond the classroom.
