Celebrating 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
Our classroom Zen-Den/Library needs an upgrade, after its creation over a year ago! This designated corner acts as a meeting space, a reading corner, a social environment, and provides students an opportunity to take a mental health break from the stresses of school.
Along with being a safe space for students, it serves as our classroom library as well.
I am slowly building a library that is both inclusive and accessible to all students. This means curating books that are both in Spanish and English for my students to feel that I am providing an equitable opportunity to build on their literacy.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
