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

In our kindergarten classrooms, every day is a new adventure — and the best adventures begin with a great book! We're asking for your help to build a library of engaging read-aloud books that match the fun and meaningful themes in our Open Court Reading curriculum, like Let’s Be Kind, What’s the Weather?, and Home Sweet Home.

These stories will help bring our lessons to life, spark big conversations among little learners, and build a strong foundation for reading success.

With your support, we can fill our storytime with books that not only entertain but also teach kindness, curiosity, and a love for learning. Help us turn every read-aloud into a magical moment!
