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

Who was that person? What was that, again? Many a times has a teacher heard these phrases about Ronald Reagan or the Civil Rights Movement.

Many students don't know who or what historical figures or events helped shape our country and world.

These books will give my students that particular knowledge through the Who Is and What Is series. These books cover important events from our past, which is essential to my students' learning.

By having access to these books, it will help them be able to achieve background knowledge about World War I that they will carry through the rest of their educational career.

My students also need to know the impact of important figures in today's world and through these books that is possible.
