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 enjoy reading and this year we have focused on biographies to inspire us. Brad Meltzer is a phenomenal author and my students enjoy reading his books.

The 'I Am' books inspire my students to be the best that they are and open doors to their imagination.

These books will be an asset to our classroom to be used year after year. These books have another benefit. They inspire my kids to be authors and illustrators. I know my students will value these books and treasure them for years to come.
