Inspiration and Positivity During Independent Reading Time
Help me give my students a collection of inspirational books to read during their independent reading time.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. McBean's classroom raised $237

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 Students
More than three quarters of my students come from low-income households. The majority of my students are Hispanic and African American. Many of my Hispanic students are second language learners. Even though we are experiencing a pandemic, my students continue to press forward and thrive.
My students are resilient learners, and I love that about them.
My Project
My students have daily independent reading time. I would love to have inspirational books to read. The books that I have selected help teens cope with common teen issues such as building character, making good choices, self care, and finding balance. It is my hope that adding books like these to my classroom library can help turned a cloudy day for my students into a bright one.
Focusing on the positive is so important during this pandemic.
There is so much negativity around that it is imperative to learn how to redirect our attention to positivity and self growth.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
