Help me give my students a set of seven SEL books with inclusive pictures.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Zwick's classroom raised $392
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
Students have read books they may enjoy, but often don't see themselves represented in the characters. Some students deal with emotions that they can't talk about or describe.
This is why my students need to read SEL books and books about other students who look like them.
By providing reading books that represent them like Ruby Bridges and Frida Kahlo, my students will someday have a chance to write their own stories.
Technology and devices are taking over our students' attention, but a book is a tool that should not be replaced.
By providing Latin and African American books in our class, students will have the opportunity to write and speak to others about their customs and traditions.
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
