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

This is my first year teaching.

I'm a TK teacher and would like to add a bookshelf to display fun books that go along with our theme to help my students learn to enjoy reading!

They will be able to use books with pictures and plush characters to help them connect to the theme and stories we are reading in class. My students love it when the library center is open and available. This bookshelf would help them be able to see what books are available. When we bring the books to life and display them well kids tend to want to read more. Help me bring reading to life for my students.
