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

We are in the midst of learning about the pilgrimage and colonies. My students could benefit from other ways to visualize and fully enjoy their learning. Please help me provide my students with a library complete with History books that are fun and interesting. These graphic novels can help students visualize the events of American history and really become interested and invested in their learning. This project includes several books and posters to help fill our room with interesting history. Students will use these books alongside our curriculum to really make deeper connections.
