We Value Equality and Diversity Through Literature

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 Project

All of my students love to access our classroom library and select meaningful books that make them think, feel, and experience the beauty of literature. Nowadays, my kids have read most of the books that we have available in our classroom library. To provide them with more books to continue enjoying reading how they do, I decided to start this project.

Our project will be based on diversity and equality; these two topics are paramount if we want to help our students grow with solid values and the ability to continue working to ensure equal rights and acceptance.

In the same way, we will use these books to work on emotional education by discussing what the stories teach us and connecting it to personal experiences.

For each book my students read throughout our project, they will create a leaf that they will stick to a tree outside of our classroom. They will write what they liked, learned, or what surprised them about the books. We will have a tree full of leaves that will talk about acceptance, equality, and diversity, a tree that represents the values we believe in. We appreciate your help in pursuing our goal!
