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

Our preschool classroom is filled with little diverse bilingual learners who LOVE to read! With a book browse to start every morning and a library filled with books they've read a million times, my students are in need of some new and improved stories to catch their book-loving eyes!

These new books will offer my students a brand new opportunity to continue their love of reading and even spark a few others who have yet to catch the "reading love bug" with bilingual, colorful, new books.

I picked these books specifically for my kiddos hoping to bring new life to our library area and morning book browse by choosing culturally, linguistically, and age appropriate books that reflect who my students are and their interests.
