Celebrating 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
With the bookshelves and books, I will be able to create a comfortable and inviting reading nook that will play a significant role in the lives of my 4th grade students. The books will increases the knowledge of my students, improve their intellect, makes them aware of the various societies, and civilizations across the globe, and enhance their imagination and creativity.
The goal of this project is to promote inclusion and diversity while providing confident and independent readers a place to gather.
It will also provide my students with a wide range of reading materials that gives them an array of genres and topics.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
