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 class of scholars enjoy reading and learning but lack the resources to continue their love of reading. These resources will work towards continuing their love of reading. The students will be able to read many different books from SEL to graphic novels. The SEL books will help students grow socially and the graphic books are enjoyed by the whole class. Any amount of reading is great as long as you are reading. I would love to give my students the opportunity to continue their passion for reading in and out of school.
