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

The ultimate goal of my classroom library is to provide my students with a wide range of reading material that does the following: gives them a broad array of genres and topics, promotes inclusion and diversity, encourages confident and independent readers.

Research has also shown that students who have ongoing access to engaging books in their classrooms exhibit higher reading achievement, better comprehension and an increased vocabulary.

Some of our students come from poverty and are unable to purchase books at home, so the classroom is an opportunity for them to access books.
