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

All of my 5th grade students are beyond amazing, creative, and kind!

The goal for this project is to request classroom library books that my students will be interested in reading.

In both English and Spanish! Books that they won't want to put down! I want to give my students reading book marks that are fun. Every time students move up reading levels they will receive bookmarks !

My students will also receive book baggies which they will use on daily basis to take their books home and to school. The book baggies will help keep our classroom library books safe for other students to continue to use over the years! The carpet will make my classroom library more inviting and cozy for students to sit by the book shelves and just read on to build on their reading stamina!

For this new upcoming academic school year, the small carpet, the books will help me create a cozy calm/reading corner for students to use on a daily basis. The purpose of this project is to foster a love for reading and regulate their social emotional skills.
