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

My class was lucky enough to hit our previous goal for a classroom library! The excitement from my second-graders when I told them the news was amazing to see and I know that once the books get delivered, they will be THRILLED. We are also lucky enough that people still want to donate to our classroom!! This year, I have 31 students in an Integrated Co-Teaching classroom. My students have high needs and would benefit from the items on this list. Thank you so so so much for wanting to help my little ones!
