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

I am currently expanding my knowledge by taking a class on Children's Literature and Diversity. When children can see themselves in the books they read it helps them to develop their identity, feel connected to their culture, and creates more motivation to read. My classroom library currently contains some some non-fiction books and some novels, but they are old and do not contain diverse characters. I am hoping to create a library with high interest books and diversity. This project aims to add diverse graphic novels to the classroom library. The diversity will include subject matter (colorism, LGBTQ, being a new students, addiction, incarcerated parent etc) as well as under-represented authors.
