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

Help us foster a lifelong love for reading by providing students with books they can take home to read and share with their families! Reading is not just a skill; it’s a gateway to knowledge, creativity, and academic success.

With these books, my students will have appropriate individual reading levels, high-interest novels, and challenge them to be able to gain the reading skills necessary to become fluent readers.

My students are in need of quality books this year to be able to learn how to read and become successful students. Most of my students are still learning the basic reading skills, and are English Language learners. These books will benefit my students greatly.
