Celebrating 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.
Give this project a boost!
A chain reaction of support starts with one share.
In our 4th-grade classroom, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and empathetic learning environment. To support this mission, we aim to expand our library with diverse books that reflect the rich backgrounds and experiences of our students. Including books featuring characters from various races, cultures, genders, and abilities helps students see themselves in the stories they read and understand others’ experiences.
With your support, we will acquire books such as "Front Desk" by Kelly Yang, "The Truths We Hold: An American Journey (Young Readers’ Edition)" by Kamala Harris, A Mango-Shaped Space by Wendy Mass, "A Boy Called Bat" by Elana Arnold, and "The Girl Who Thought in Pictures" by Julia Finley Mosca.
We also need organizational tools like a label maker, laminator, and bookshelf to keep our library tidy and accessible.
Your contribution will help us create a classroom library where every student can find stories that resonate with them and build a deeper understanding of the world. Thank you for helping us celebrate diversity and nurture a love of reading!
More than half of students from low‑income households
