Help me give my students some fresh additions to the classroom library. They requested more humor.

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

My little cuties are avid readers. I take pride in my classroom library but I am in desperate need of some humorous books. I would love to surprise them with some new additions that I think will meet their need for some chuckles.

Reading for enjoyment is a hard sell for most kids, but not for my bunch.

They work so hard and now that test prep season has come around in preparation for state exams, getting them to pick up a book is tougher than usual. Please help me keep them interested in reading.
