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

Help me give my students brand new books to add to our classroom library! My students love to read! They go through books faster than I can find new ones they may enjoy. I want to be able to add a ton of books that they are interested in reading so that they never have to stop and wait for a new book to read!

The books in this project were chosen by my students as fan favorites that they love to read!

The graphic novels of The Baby-Sitters Club is a huge hit in our room! Gordon Korman is a favorite author of ours, so we needed to include some of those books too! And of course, The One and Only Ruby, to continue reading this collection!
