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 am eager to provide my students with a library filled with books that will foster a love for reading. My goal is to ignite their passion for learning and promote independence in their reading journeys. The books I have selected are suitable for new readers, which will allow me to create small group sessions effectively. Although I currently allow students to borrow books from our limited collection, I want to expand their access to a diverse range of reading materials to keep them engaged. This donation will significantly impact my students' academic development and help them become future readers and scholars.
