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 Students

Children are ever-growing and ever-learning. Their level of understanding and acceptance is evolving with every book they read, every person they meet, and every experience they go through.

The coronavirus pandemic may have us separated, but our love and understanding of one another is closer than ever.

My Project

Students love to learn about different kinds of people. They are open and empathetic to what makes humans unique. Our books about different cultures, gender expressions, and families will continue to provide read aloud opportunities! These opportunities will transcend our distance learning limitations and plant seeds of kindness and humanity.

Children want to learn about and understand people's differences and our diversity and inclusion book list will give them just that!

Your donations will provide access to the kinds of books that past generations never had in their classrooms. The kinds of books that really mattered!
