Help me give my students books that promote inclusion and also books that teach them how to build strong peer relations.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Ornelas's classroom raised $176
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
Our students are energetic and eager to learn. They love coming to school and learning to read. The books that they enjoy the most are usually books that they can relate to.
I am requesting books that help children to understand their feelings and I am also requesting books that they can identify with.
My goal is to help my students see themselves in these books. I have chosen these books because they promote cultural inclusion and self-worth.
If you believe in the importance of these values, please make a donation.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
