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

As a first year teacher, I hardy have any read aloud books. I usually borrow books from the library or other teachers. I want to start my own library with fun and engaging books to read aloud to my students. My students love when I read books to them and are always engaged when I am reading to them. With your help I can start my own library with books I can read to my students. My students enjoy picture book and books that they can relate to. With your help I can foster their love for read aloud and books.
