Help me give my students books about things that go such as trucks, boats, and planes!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Calarco's classroom raised $169

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

We have a theme in our pre-k curriculum called Things that Go! It is all about different vehicles like trucks, boats, cars, and planes. I want to give my students some board books to be displayed throughout the room for students to use.

These board books are sturdy and hard which is perfect for little learners who are just starting to read!

These books have pictures and words to help our students learn about our vehicle theme! Students will love reading these books independently as well as having them read to them!
