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 such an important part of learning. The more kids read, the better they get at it.

Help me inspire my students to love reading by providing them with books they will enjoy reading.

I have chosen books that my students have asked to read. I have also chosen books that essential for whole class teacher reading.

Many of the books I chose are ones I remember reading in elementary school. They inspired my love of reading and I hope they will do the same for the students in my classroom.
