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

I teach in a Free Public School that caters kids within its vicinity with quality education. It is my second year teaching in this school and I can see the students' eagerness to learn. My students never runs out of queries about the new stuff I'm teaching them. They are very energetic and always come to school ready.

You cannot go to a battle without your sword!

These are the words I always tell them to keep them always prepared for school. And I am very happy to see them fully equipped with the necessary things they need to carry for learning.

My Project

Just like swordsmen, they cannot go to a sword fight without their swords. A student fully equipped with words today is a wise man in the future. I believe that a student who takes reading as a hobby is a responsible student.

Sharper sWORDS = sharper minds!

The reading materials I have selected will make my students' mind sharper as they provide us with exceptional texts in a wide range of genres, including informational and narrative nonfiction, original fiction, and drama. Scope is designed to meet today's most challenging English language arts standards. With every issue, you will receive grade-level correlations for each article and story.
