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

Help me bring more graphic novels to our classroom library! Graphic novels are a powerful tool for engaging young readers, especially when they encounter challenging vocabulary or complex topics. The combination of visual storytelling and text helps students build comprehension, confidence, and a genuine love for reading.

Many of my students are drawn to graphic novels because they make learning feel accessible and exciting.

These books introduce them to history, science, and literature in a way that keeps them engaged, even when the language might otherwise feel intimidating. For students who struggle with traditional chapter books, graphic novels provide the support they need to persevere and grow as readers.

By adding more graphic novels to our classroom, we can create a space where every student finds joy in reading. Your generosity will directly impact their learning, helping them strengthen their skills and discover books that inspire them. Any contribution, big or small, will make a difference!

Thank you for considering our project and for supporting young readers on their journey.
