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

Today we began our Historical Fiction Unit. WOW! My readers amaze me every time. They get so eager and excited - my WWII books FLEW off the shelves. We are going to spend January reading Number the Stars and I just know the kids will be hungry for all the World War II knowledge and Historical Fiction books to live "a day in the life" of these important eras of history.

It is always my personal mission to get my kids REV'D up about reading - even better when it is over such important events in our history.
