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

We have many students who come from different countries. They are new to the United States and eager to learn English.

The diverse books would give the students an engaging way to learn English, see themselves in literature, and develop a love for reading.

Many students come to us who can read and write in a language other than English, so they pick up English at a fast rate. Once they master the foundational reading skills, they love to apply it to books of interest. The collection I’ve chosen will bring joy to their lives and inspire them to continue on their educational journey.
