Hooray! 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
Any time a student asks for a particular book or series, I write the name on a notepad that I keep on my desk and each month I order books from there in order they are requested. However, the requests have gotten too much for my personal book budget, but I know how important it is to keep students interested in reading.
Students who have access to books they have chosen for himself/herself experience higher reading satisfaction and are more inclined to branch out to read other texts outside their comfort zone. The books and series in this project were all requested by the very students who will be reading them from our class library.
This classroom project was brought to life by The DonorsChoose Community
and 4 other donors.
