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.

I teach first grade in an inner city school. 80% of the students in my school are eligible for free lunch. My students are not exposed to a variety of reading materials at home. Most of the families do not have books, magazines or newspapers at home.

As a first grade teacher I know that young children have an enormous interest in science. The Weekly Reader is a way to expose students to non-fiction writing in both science and social studies. With the budget cuts to education, this is not something that the school can provide and most families cannot afford. The Weekly Reader magazine is an eye-catching magazine with glossy photographs. Both my '07-'08 and '08-'09 class received the subscription through a donor and I know first hand that it builds science, literacy, and geography skills.

I'm asking for this subscription to the Weekly Reader now, so that I can have the first magazines here when school begins. It is very important for these items to arrive on time for my next group of eager students. In the past two years, issues have included science topics such as butterflies, migrating animals, polar bears, weather, insects, pumpkins, nutrition and exercise, and the presidential election.

Your generosity will motivate my students to become independent readers and eager learners. The subscription includes 4 big teacher issues each month that encourages class discussions. You will enable first graders to enjoy non-fiction reading!
