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

Our school provides a safe haven for students in a high mobility area of our city. Our community is a diverse mix of families, some in their second generation of attendance, veteran and new teachers (including two former students!), and experienced school leaders.

While our students face some obstacles in accessing resources, they have the same aspirations and hopes as students throughout the city.

We strive to overcome some obstacles in providing them with the access and use of technologies that will help them fulfill their goals.

My Project

These materials will help our Fourth Grade class master the ability to research topics from a wide range of subjects and to learn how to explain what they've found and make arguments, providing evidence, to support their opinions on these topics.

Who is...? What is...? series of books are always popular with Fourth Graders and their interests compels them to read!

These books will help expand our classroom library, while the Anchor Chart paper will provide a canvas for clear, concise lessons on Reading, Research, and Writing. The pencils, colored and standard, will help the students take notes and write their opinions in coherent, edited and revised, final drafts.
