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 preschool library is in need of new books to foster a love of reading and promote early literacy skills. With a mix of board books, picture books, and interactive texts, these new additions will help our young learners develop critical vocabulary, comprehension, and social-emotional skills. These books will also help introduce themes like diversity, empathy, and friendship to our youngest learners. As our students come from various backgrounds, it's essential to provide them with books that reflect their lives and help them see themselves in the stories they read.
