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 creative and inspiring young individuals who love reading. They are ambitious and self-motivating. They love reading to transport them to new adventures.
Having high-quality picture books can make a significant difference in their learning outcomes by providing them with the tools and support they need to succeed.
The best way to increase reading ability is to read more, and these books will continue to help my students grow stronger in reading. They have been chosen with my students in mind and will enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create.
More than a third 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
