Books Needed for Hispanic Heritage Month!

Help me give my students books about the Hispanic culture for Hispanic heritage month.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Guerrero Guastella's classroom raised $195

This project is fully funded

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

The books that I am requesting for my classroom are either written by Hispanic authors or the books are about the Hispanic culture. These books are a perfect addition for my library! These books will be part of my library after I read them aloud to my students.

My goal is to read each book as a read aloud to my class.

My students and I will celebrate that each book was written by an Hispanic author or that the book is written about the Hispanic culture.

I know that my students will enjoy reading these books not only during Hispanic Heritage Month, but all year long!
