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 Students

My students from Ridgewood, New York will be book lovers and avid readers! I’m so excited to encourage them to read many different books and to love to read! I know my students will be amazing and very special. Excited to meet my new students next year!

My Project

These materials will make a difference in my students learning because it will enrich their mind. It will allow for my students to have recourses from TPT to further their learning. It will help them love to read and learn new things. I will use these books for independent reading. For students to read for a 25 book challenge. I’m a new ELA teacher with minimal supplies. I don’t have enough books for my students to choose from for next year. By funding this project my classroom will have library books that students are interested in and will motivate them to want to read. Anything helps!
