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

Our library needs a little love. We all want our children to experience the joys of reading, of getting lost in a book, and of learning invaluable information. As a new 3rd grade teacher, our classroom library currently lacks books for our growing readers. I can see already that I have many students who are interested in books, and I want to keep them intrigued.

My goal is to fill the shelves with books that will help them along their reading journey and hopefully inspire them to lifelong readers.

The books in this project have been mentioned by students as things they were curious about and interested in reading. Graphic novels are always a hit, and the Wings of Fire and Science Comics will surely be exciting for the kids. In addition, You Are A Story and the Journey series will be able to fuel their imagination and start their own journey into storytelling.
