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 have been reading a lot of books of their own choice this year! They are wanting to read more books that are more recent. They also love to read from a variety of genres and we are in need of different types of books from nonfiction to graphic novels (which are their absolute favorite).

It has been so inspiring to see students excited about reading new books and sharing their favorite titles with their friends and classmates.

I need help keeping up with new and interesting book titles!
