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

Every year in Kindergarten we write informational writing pieces about animals. We have to share our school library resources amongst all three Kindergarten classrooms, and it would be amazing to have our own collection of nonfiction animal books written in Spanish in our classroom.

This collection of books has the perfect pictures and information that my students need to access in order to complete their written projects.

We will be using these amazing books for years to come, and are very excited to have our own set of nonfiction animals books. We appreciate every one of your donations!
