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

Today's students spend more and more time in front of a screen. It is important to create a comprehensive library for students to explore which helps them to learn about amazing authors and their stories.

The project will provide a comprehensive library to teach students about themselves and about the world around them.

The books in this project will teach my students social emotional skills, STEAM concepts, and Caldecott winning books. They will help to spark knowledge and ideas to help encourage my students to learn to love to read.
