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

As an English as a New Language teacher, I have the privilege of meeting students and families from all over the world. No matter what country a student comes from or what language they speak one thing they have in common is their curiosity and drive to learn a new language.

What I've noticed is that students need books in their home language in order to get them engaged and ready to learn.

With your help I'll be able to provide bilingual fiction and nonfiction books for my newly arrived students.

Grades 3-5
