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

Books develop and nourish kids' imaginations, expanding their worlds. Picture books introduce young children to the world of art and literature. Novels and nonfiction books stimulate kids' sensory awareness, helping kids to see, hear, taste, feel, and smell on an imagined level. Students who are new and recently immigrated need books who understand them and help them feel accepted.

Newcomers needs books in their native language.

This helps them understand and feel accepted.

In the classroom, picture books can be a valuable teaching tool for students at any grade level. However, they are especially beneficial for English language learners (ELLs). Good picture books for ELL students will help them form connections between their native language and English, build vocabulary, and support academic learning standards.

These books will help expand learning and growing for all students but especially students who deserve support.
