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

Please help us us give our students more books to read at their level. In first grade our students are all at different levels in their learning and we want to be able to give them books to read at all their levels. At our school we use AR and we always want them to have access to have to as many books as possible to help them practice and grow.

We can't wait to see the looks on our students faces when they see so many new books in our classroom libraries!

With your help we will be able to provide them with more early readers and nonfiction books to really help them grow as readers. With the paper we will also be able to create more supports to check in on their comprehension.
