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 class has been working so hard all year! We are looking to refresh our library and replenish our pencils. We are writing so much everyday that our pencils have become tiny little nubs. LOL! We would love some activity cards that our teacher can laminate and allow us to use over and over.

Some of the books we would love gifted and added to our library are amazing and will continue to strengthen our LOVE for reading!

Many of us really started to enjoy reading series of books and not just one per set. Thank you for helping!
