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
As someone who enjoys reading, I think one of the most important things a teacher can do is put a good book in a student's hands! I absolutely love seeing my students read a book that they can't put down. That is why it is important to me to have a variety of novels and texts in our classroom library so every student can find a book that they love.
This project will stock our classroom library shelves with relevant, engaging non-fiction texts, thus supporting each student in finding a book that they love so much they can't put it down!
These books will also support students in practicing their reading skills independently. Many skills are learned with non-fiction texts, therefore, it is important independent non-fiction texts are made available to students too.
Nearly all 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
