The Gift of Reading

Help me give my students various types of text to increase their reading interest. These titles give my students exposure to different types of genres that they may not pick out for themselves.

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

When I think about my students, I refer to the Star Wars quote, "The force is strong with this one" and switch it to "these ones." With that mantra, my students come to school willing to try their best. My students make me want to be a better teacher.

I have been fortunate to have taught for many years, but this year, anything that involves any long term, thematic projects lights my students' faces up.

Anything that has to do with hands-on lessons or activities, my students absorb it like sponges. I feel that a hands-on approach to learning will greatly benefit my students and their curiosity for learning.

My Project

As an educator, I have the desire to have books from various genres that my students could have full access to in my classroom. Literacy is not only important among all students, but it is also something that is often not practiced enough in real time. My students deserve to have access to books so that they have an opportunity to read. The books I chose are a combination of books that will spark conversation and interest among the students that read them.

In today's world, reading is something that is not practiced enough by our youth due to technology.

It is my goal to rekindle the love for reading among my students, and hopefully those students will inspire others to read.
