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 very kind, respectful, and eager to learn. My students love it when we do reading time in the classroom and look forward to reading book favorites such as Biscuit, Squidding Around, and BunBun & BonBon. Having more of these books will excite my students as they love to read them very much.

With your generosity, these books will help my students improve their reading.

My students are always very excited for AR time. It makes me happy to see that my students enjoy reading. Please consider donating to provide my students with these awesome books.

Thank you!
