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

What I love about my scholars is their love to dive deeper into our lessons. Our Historians will be exploring The Rise of Ancient Imperial China and Ancient Egypt.

The books I have requested will allow scholars to explore and build their curiosity beyond our daily lessons.

My goal with these books is to provide additional learning resources to provide background knowledge to our curriculum. I feel that additional reading material builds content knowledge which leads to an increase in understanding and increase in exam scores. Help me support our classroom of curiosity and bring new exciting books to our shelves.
