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 are eagered to learn. To achieve growth, I would like my students to be eagered to read as well. When students read, their vocabulary and knowledge increases as well.

I would like to grow my classroom library in order to have more books my students will love.

With your support, I would be able to add books to series that my students already love to read. Adding books that my students love, will keep them excited about reading.

My students will be able to practice their reading strategies through books they love to read!
