Books as Mirrors: A Multicultural Library for MLLs

Help me give my students a classroom library where they can use the author's words as mirrors into their own lives.

My Project

My multicultural learners speak from 2 to 5 languages and are very interested in the world around them. We will be learning about many topics in our classroom that these students will face in their daily lives. Our classroom studies will empower my students to self-advocate, which will serve to strengthen their daily interactions.

I would like to utilize novels written by people of color in my lessons so my students can see themselves in the pages.

With your help, my students will use these novels as mirrors. They will actually be able to see themselves within the pages of literature.
