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

By furnishing my students with these carefully selected books for their classroom library, they will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in literature that truly captivates their interests, igniting their passion for reading. This will encourage them to engage in more frequent reading, which will foster an enriched learning experience and nurturing a lifelong love for books. Our book selection process involved comprehensive surveys and reading interest assessments, and these particular titles resonated most strongly with their preferences and passions, ensuring that their reading journeys are both enjoyable and enriching.
