My Project

I am requesting books in Spanish, including the Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Mo Willems and Pam Muñoz Ryan author studies. I've also requested a Spanish language anti-racist book collection for 3rd-5th graders. My bilingual and new-to-country students will love to read the books in Spanish that we already have... we just need more.

We read every day.

Staying excited about reading takes books! As the classroom teacher, I want to provide students access to books that are diverse and engaging. My students will love to read these high-interest books in Spanish.

A great library is essential for a classroom. A great library includes diverse books. Great books matter. Thank you for considering our project.
