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 give my second-grade gifted and talented students a fun and rich library! In my classroom, I believe that reading should be fun and engaging.

My goal is to create a vibrant collection of rigorous chapter books that my students truly enjoy and that will inspire a lifelong love of reading.

By providing access to a variety of captivating stories, we can spark curiosity and imagination, making reading an enjoyable experience for all students. These books not only cater to their interests but also challenge them fostering growth and critical thinking skills.

Your generous donations will help us build a library filled with books that resonate with our young learners. Every contribution, no matter the size, will make a significant impact on our students' literacy journey and help instill a passion for reading.

Thank you for considering supporting our classroom project. Your kindness and generosity will help shape the future of these young readers.
