An Empty Shelf Has Room For Lots Of Books

Help me give my students the best school year I can give them. Most of what is in the cart will be for our classroom library as our current library is pretty bare.

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

These items listed in the cart will be so special to my students as they will be able to use all of these items every day of the school year and for many students to come in the future. My goal is to build my classroom library so every student has something they enjoy reading. I want to be able to have a variety of genres so they have the ability to expand their knowledge in all areas. With these items our library will be complete and my students and myself will be very excited.
