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

This year we are working to grow our classroom library! The students have been enjoying the books we have already been fortunate enough to purchase, and have voted to add in some classic Goosebumps. We are requesting the first box set to ensure more students are able to read the books at the same time instead of just one or two and other students have to wait.

In addition to adding more amazing titles to the classroom library, the students need book pouches, pocket charts, and snacks to help keep our classroom more organized and fun.

These will be especially helpful to my students who need those additional supports in the classroom to help them stay organized, and learn better with visuals.
