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

One of the best and most memorable places in any classroom is the library. This is the place where kids can sit and relax and travel to another world with a great book.

Unfortunately, my classroom library can be very difficult to use to find a good book.

I have tried many ways to figure out how to keep my library neat and organized so my students can easily find the best book for them. Nothing so far has worked.

If I had different book shelves, my books would be easier to see and fit into the space better. The spinning towers would be perfect for my chapter books and would encourage students to read more of them. The shelf would provide me with a better place to put my picture books because the shelves have more space than I have now and would display them in a much more user-friendly way.
