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 Students

Do you remember how magical it felt to find books that excited you and made you want to read under the covers with a flashlight? The students in our after school anime/manga/comics club are funny, smart and energetic and would love to own their own mangas or comics to read at home!

My Project

My students are anime/manga/comic book obsessed, but most live at or near the poverty line. They would be thrilled to own their own mangas that they can read and trade with their friends. They would each have a chance to pick out a new book at each of our after school meetings, and once they finish reading it, they can trade with their friends. They will also have access to how to draw anime guides so they can work on drawing some of their favorite characters.

Having their own books at home to read and share with their friends will increase their excitement about reading and strengthen their friendships.

They've been through so much with the pandemic, and manga brings so much joy to their lives.
