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

Reading corners are a great way to nurture a love for reading. My students love looking through our collection of books. They also like to participate in our daily read alouds.

I would love to continue to foster my students' love for books by improving our classroom's reading space.

The bookshelf, carpet, book stand, lamp, and decorative tissue box holder that I have selected will make our current reading space more cozy and inviting, making students want to stay and read.

Please help me create a more inviting environment for my students to enjoy their favorite stories. Thank you in advanced for your generosity!
