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

I am a 5th grade Spanish Language Arts teacher. My students come from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds and have a wide range of reading capabilities. Unfortunately, not all have access to books at home and school is one of the few places that provides such access. Due to this, I want my classroom library to have a little something for everyone.

I want to build a classroom library where all students can find a book at their reading level.

Slowly, I have worked towards building our classroom library, but my budget for new books cannot keep up with my students' love for reading. My students can read for hours on end. Support me as I continue to foster their love for learning.
