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

We have a theme in our prek curriculum called healthy foods! I am requesting board books about healthy foods for my classroom and my students!

These books will be displayed throughout the classroom and used by the students independently.

I will also use these books to read aloud to my students. Students love to read the books we have read together in class!

These books will help reinforce what we are learning about in our healthy foods unit! These strong and sturdy books are perfect for young learners who are just starting to read!
