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 are eager to learn and we always love filling our library with new books and a fun new way to dive into reading!

The books we have picked out will help create a fun way to engage in reading "under the stars" with a group of books to partner read and a flashlight for each student!

With the selected camping-themed books we have decided some fun new flashlights for each student will help with tracking. What a fun way to partner read and kick off a fun new unit!
