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 are bright, curious, and learning to love reading. I love having discussions in the library about the books they are reading ,or the books/topics they would like to read about. I pay attention to the trends on new books.

The books on this list are newer release titles and/or books that have been requested by patrons.

Most of the books on this list are STEM related. My students enjoy all books that are STEM. I keep track of the requests on an Amazon wish list, and these books are directly from that list. I want to ensure that my students always have the most up-to-date collection in our school library.
