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

My students have been identified as students with a variety of learning challenges. Reading has traditionally been a subject in school they have avoided as it has been difficult for them.

This project would provide books on topics our students would enjoy reading to help capture their interest so they would remain engaged in reading activities in class.

Keeping them engaged in reading activities has been a challenge historically. Thank you for allowing us to have the opportunity to provide these tools to support them in this area. I look forward to seeing their growth as we are able to put these items in place with our lessons.

Thank you for your support of our class and our students!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
