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

My class is in love with reading! I would like to keep that love alive with an organized classroom library. With a brand new system to organize library books, my students will be able to see what level or topic the book they want is in. This will make their book shopping experience much more fun and easier. Students will be able to take a book out of a specific bin and return their book when completed.

My 2nd grade students will love visiting our classroom library to shop and will be able to take ownership of organizing and maintaining a beautiful classroom library!
