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 work in a very high needs school in the Bronx. We have limited resources and access to learning tools and books. I am looking for ways to make learning more accessible for my students. Some of my students are able to read on grade level and some are struggling to sound out words abs make meaning of what they are reading. My goal as a teacher is to motivate my students to go above and beyond.

My Project

This project will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy. Every book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunity to read. Students will be able to choose books, which will help them continue to enjoy independent reading time.

These books will spark a level of interest and learning for my fourth graders!

My class loves to read every single day. Reading gives them the chance to explore new things and use their imagination. This will help my students this year grow so much as readers and I need your help to continue to do so!
