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 amazing students are the reason for this project! Please help me give them the gifts that keep on giving... books! I would like to expand our classroom library to get them more excited to read...

Autonomy is of utmost importance when talking about reading books.

Although my tiny humans love to read our class novels, I would like to grace them with more of a variety for them to be able to choose from.

I want them to WANT to take these books home to read. Thank you so much in advance for your consideration.
