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

I want my students to end the year excited about reading in Spanish, so I need various books to choose from.

I have chosen several books that I know will excite my students!

The books also vary in reading levels to reach all reading levels. Additionally, we want a rug in the library so that they have different places in the classroom to go and read. Further, we are creating an area in class for students to review books. We will use a digital camera where they can take a photo of the book's cover and write why they recommend it.

With your help, I can support my students and increase their reading skills. My students will be very grateful; any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated!
