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 Students

My 24 amazing Third graders have gone the distance on Zoom since August.

We are about to return to the classroom in person...and we want to READ BOOKS!

As we come back in person, I want to give each student a book!

My Project

Thanks to so many apps, my Third graders have been able to READ while Distance Learning. But I want them to hold a book again and feel the joy of turning the page.

Reading rules: EACH KIDDO GETS A BOOK TO KEEP AND BRING HOME!

Reading is the most important thing a child can do. My students know this and I want to continue to encourage reading at home...with a book they can HOLD and not need a screen to read. These amazing kids need to read...please help my students by giving them their own books to KEEP!
