Unbound Voices: Exploring Young Adult Literature

Help me give my students a selection of Young Adult books they can carry beyond the classroom that allow them to further develop sympathy and empathy for the human condition as active members of society.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cabrera's classroom raised $999

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 highly motivated students whose academic focus tends to be on STEM. Through this project, I want to provide them with a personal library where they can check out books that tell of experiences they can relate to: moving, family, identity, culture, music, etc.

This library will foster their sense of community because the goal is for them to share what they loved and how the particular stories helped cultivate a sense of belonging and feeling seen as part of their families both within school and beyond the classroom.
