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

One of the best things that children can enjoy is having a story read to them, this can be about thing! I hope to continue to inspire my students with reading, which I have noticed is something they really enjoy a lot!

Reading books helps learning about the weather and any other subject by expanding their knowledge!

I hope that my students having more stories that we can read as a whole will follow them throughout their academic journey but as well as leave them with an enjoyable memory of feeling inspired with reading at school and at home!
