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 reading to many different classes of brilliant girls in New York City. Many of my students are English language learners and children with special needs. Most qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

All of my students are creative, thoughtful, and eager learners, and much of their knowledge this year has been expressed through their literacy and play.

It has been so exciting to see them fully engaged each day as they learn through collaboration and play with their peers.

I teach 29 bright and beautiful first graders in a high-needs area of New York. My students and I have been working intensively to get to grade level proficiency in reading. We set realistic reading goals and are working to make at least one year's growth. They have a goal-setting mindset.

My Project

We are currently doing a character study unit that concludes with a readers theater. My students have come to love Piggie and Elephants books, and the Mo Willems book are easy to read and act out. My students have fallen in love with reading and that is largely due to their obsession with the characters from Mo Willems books. I would love to celebrate that love of reading by giving them some rewards that Mo would approve of! I am asking for finger puppets, bags and books that will bring so much joy to my scholars all while celebrating their favorite author!!
