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

Summer vacation is almost here in Georgia! While students and teachers alike look forward to the leisure time, I'm worried about learning loss. My students love to look at books, but don't have many at home.

How amazing would it be if each student could have a bag of books for summer?

I know that this would make a big difference in their readiness for 2nd grade. I envision sending each student off to summer with a starter set for their growing personal library. Help us end the year with books and smiles.
