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 am requesting Level A to Level H books for my classroom. My students are in different reading stages. Some of my students are readers and some are learning to read. My students that are learning to read need books that are easy to decode and to understand. They need books at their reading level that can help them with their reading fluency. I know that my students will enjoy reading books that are not so easy or not to hard. Thank you donors for your kindness and support to our classroom project!!

“You can find magic wherever you look, sit back and relax all you need is a book!” – Dr. Seuss.

Thank you for helping my classroom project. My students and I appreciate everything that this foundation and your generosity has given us. Thank you!
