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

In our classroom family, we LOVE the authors/illustrators Mo Willems and Jon Klassen. We have a great collection of Mo Willems pigeon and Piggie and Gerald books in English, but with a handful of monolingual spanish speakers, to create a small collection of these books in spanish will be amazing! Jon Klassen is a quirky classroom classic, and I am so excited to add more of his books to our library.

To continue building a love of reading through hilarious and ironic books, we will be able to share in English and Spanish, laugh together at these stories, and grow our reading and problem solving skills.
