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 a great bunch! They are so smart and they love engaging books! We have built a classroom full of passion for books and they have loved the most up-to-date books I have bought. My classroom is full of books, but I do have many I have to throw out because missing pages or they are just so old and now I have to restock my library. As I restock, I would love to surround my students with new nonfiction books to use during our informational unit as well as new fiction texts!
