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 English learner students come to school every day ready to learn and explore. I asked my students what they liked to read and they all shouted "Minions"! We currently have two Minion books that we are rotating around our classroom and we would love a few more! My students need books such as Minions Vol.1-4 Boxed Set, Minions: Mini Boss, and Despicable Me Minions Banana Series Volumes 1 - 4 to read with their classmates and take home to read with their families.

Your donation to this project will provide my EL students with Minions books to read with each other!

My EL students love using their book sacks to carry their favorite reading books. Thank you for your support!
