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 6th grade English at a new charter school dedicated to providing underserved students with a college preparatory education. Many of our students come from low-income homes and their only access to books comes from what teachers can provide in the classroom.

We have a limited budget at our school with which to purchase books for our students' independent reading. Adding these books to my classroom library will give my students a wider selection to choose from and will go a long way towards supporting and building their interest in reading.

I am asking for a variety of children and teen titles from Barnes and Noble in order to give my students the selection they need to meet their reading goals for the year. They have a goal of reading 25,000 pages of independent reading this year, and new books will help them meet that challenge!

Your help will contribute to my students continued love of reading this year and in the years to come!
