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

These books will continue to enhance the exciting and fun library environment that I strive to create. Our library is a place that students really enjoy during all recess times and their scheduled visits. All of these books have been chosen with students in mind and student requests. Students will be able to check these books out, engage with them at book tasting weekly visits, book musical chairs and during their free time. Huge incentives are provided for book reports completed by grade level for completion of books read on their own time.

With these requested new books, students will be able to choose high interest books that will allow them to read independently at their reading level.

The best way to increase reading strength is to read more, and these new and exciting books will continue to help my students advance their reading skills. Students have a very enthusiastic interest in our library, which has led to a higher frequency in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences in our library.
