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

Our library is so lucky that we get to see every single student in the school each week. The kids love checking out books, but they also love having some downtime while in the library.

Our scholars love STEM activities.

The materials that the students will get from this project will provide them with many opportunities to work with these STEM activities.

The bookshelf will provide me, the librarian, opportunities to present different genres/themes of books to the students when they come into the library. This will help the kids decide what kind of books they like and want to check out.
