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

Expanding our library has been a priority for my classroom. By expanding our classroom library, my students will be given a variety of options to read. We are a bilingual classroom and would love to offer books in both English and Spanish.

These books will help promote recreational reading in class which can lead to increased fluency and reading stamina.

I am asking for a barcode scanner because I would like to start a digital library where I can keep track of the books we have in our classroom library. Please help me expand my classroom library! These books will help develop their love for reading!
