Help me give my students books to take home and share the love of reading with their families.

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 students love to read books, and they are working on their reading skills to read more and more challenging stories and information. Students need to have an opportunity to develop their reading lives and take home the joy of reading.

Our readers need to be able to take home books and share the love of reading with their families.

When students are able to choose their own books, they find stories and topics that inspire their curiosity and open up new worlds. What's even better is when they can take these books home and share the experience with their families.
