Help me give my students a class copy of Bronx Masquerade, by Nikki Grimes.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Bauer's classroom raised $551
This project is fully funded
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
As an English teacher I am always looking for a way to get students interested in reading. This is a life skill that will aid them in high school and beyond. Having books in my classroom that will provide relevancy and diversify my classroom is of utter importance.
Having this class copy of this novel will allow students to check out the book at their leisure, and help students get involved with reading.
It will also help all of my students feel seen and heard in my classroom.
Nikki Grime's Bronx Masquerade does a great job connecting students to literature along with providing poetry that is relevant to today's youth.
More than three‑quarters 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
