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

Reading is one of the most important skills for students to practice. I want to add more young adult fiction novels to our middle school library. Having a variety of fiction novels for my middle school students will encourage them to read and see the enjoyment that can come from a good book. The more my students read, the better their reading comprehension and vocabulary skills will be. These skills impact every aspect of their education. Please help me make the middle school library a place where my students love to check out books from!
