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

Thank you for helping me to create an amazing learning space for my seventh grade scholars! A big goal of mine for this upcoming year is to create a classroom library where students are able to escape in a book, and continue to grow stronger in reading. By having a variety of books, that are sorted by genre in plastic bins, students will be able to choose books that interest them. I plan to use the bookshelf and rug to create a designated space for my students to read! I appreciate your support in making this upcoming year one that is full of growth.
