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

This project aims to provide students with access to captivating books that are among the most sought-after in young adult literature. "Harry Potter", "Refugee" and "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" are just a few of the titles These titles consistently attract eager readers and are often in high demand, flying off the shelves as soon as they're available.

By having these popular books accessible, we can foster a love for reading, encouraging students to immerse themselves in stories that spark their imagination and broaden their understanding of the world.

These books will help develop critical thinking skills, enhance vocabulary, and nurture a genuine love for reading.
