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

Help me give my students new library books! My students are an amazing group of kids, who love to read, but unfortunately we don't currently have enough books for students to read their favorites. I see students as young as 4 and as old as 12, as well as students who speak English and Spanish.

My students would love to read about their favorite book characters in English and Spanish!

From Gerald and Piggie to Captain Underpants, my students love to dive into the world of reading. Thank you for helping my students explore the amazing world of books!
