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 come from a very low economic statues; the vast majority are described as "at risk" and receive free lunch. The students live in crowded households with multiple families living in it.

The students parents work long hours to support their children, rarely giving them a chance to help their child with their education.

The students show passion for their learning even when they do not have the best living conditions or the best chances they try their best to learning each day.

My Project

My students need a real listening center where they can listen to stories while reading along with a book. This will help instill a greater reading interest for the students. This will also allow students to practice reading skills, learn new vocabulary words and listening/comprehension skills.

I am requesting a pocket-chart stand/charts and iPads to use with the student for phonics learning.

As part of their learning students most come to learn the alphabet,letter sounds, sight words, blends etc. These materials will positively impact their learning throughout the school year.

The bean bags will provide students a comfortable and inviting place to read in our library.
