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 students can't get enough of reading! The books selected are very popular among my students and will be put to great use. These books will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy. All of these books have been chosen with my students' interest in mind.

My students are highly motivated learners, kind and appreciative students.

With these new books, my students will be able to choose from a variety of books that will allow them to read independently. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in independent reading, and this project will only help enrich their experiences with the printed word.
