Fostering Love and Inclusion Through Books
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Gonzalez's classroom raised $369
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
I have an amazing group of students this year who are hungry for learning. After a year learning through Zoom, my students are yearning for books. The comfy floor seats will allow for comfortable floor seating options. As a lover of books, it makes me happy to provide books that help celebrate diversity.
These books were carefully chosen to encourage inclusion, culture, self-esteem, and a growth mindset. Some students struggle developing social and emotional connections with others. I want my students to embrace the power in words. Please help me satisfy their craving for books.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
