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

Hey folks,

It's that time in the year when students tell me that they just can't find a book that interests them.

To support them during our independent reading time, I want to have a few new books that will renew their spirit!

I asked my students what kinds of books interest them and the most popular topics were sports and mythology! I have also selected a few other books that I think will gain their interest or support them in their ELA skill development.

Please think about supporting this project and helping our students find the books that will make them life long readers!
