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

I will be using these bilingual, Spanish, and authentic texts in my school library where my students (500+ in the school) will have daily access to checking them out and taking them home.

These books are vital to my school because they reflect the bilingual and multicultural backgrounds/experiences of my students, giving them a way to more easily connect and feel impacted by what they are reading.

This will encourage literary growth and joy, even beyond the classroom!

Thank you for your help in bringing literary EQUITY to SCHOOL!
