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

Students need to be fully engaged in the texts that they are reading. Graphic novels are an excellent way to ensure that students are reading age appropriate yet exciting and engaging books.

Help me provide my students with new graphic novels to keep them excited about reading!

I have included a variety of books in the project for all types of students. Some of the books, such as Four Eyes and Pizza Face, delicately discuss self confidence topics for students. The Nathan Hale series will keep lovers of historical fiction and action engaged in reading. This project has a book for everyone!
