Help me provide my students with a diverse classroom library filled with engaging books—graphic novels, series, nonfiction, and decodable texts—that reflect their identities, support our academic units, and inspire a love of reading.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Erin's classroom raised $1,686
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
I love how curious, creative, and full of voice my students are. They come from diverse backgrounds, with many identifying as Black and Latinx, and bring rich language, culture, and perspective into our classroom. This project will provide books that reflect who they are while also introducing them to new people, places, and ideas. With a wide range of reading levels and interests in our class, these books—including graphic novels, nonfiction, and decodable texts—will ensure that every student finds something they love, building both literacy skills and a lifelong love of reading.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
