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

I am excited to both loop with my students next year and welcome a brand new group into my room.

The supplies and books on the list will create an inviting atmosphere for old and new students alike.

I am always excited to hear what the students have read over the year and love adding these titles to my library for the next school year. Being able to have books students like in my room is very beneficial because I want all students to find a love for reading in books they choose for themselves.
