FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Martes's classroom raised $168

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

In this project I am asking for some new and exciting books about the human body! Many of the books I have about skeletons and body functions are old, outdated, or falling apart! My students LOVE these types of books and get very excited to look at and read them!

Knowing about your body is very important!

Please consider helping me get these fabulous books into the hands of my amazing students! They have shown a lot of love to the books we already have, and need some new updated ones!
