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 believe all students should have the opportunity to be exposed to great literature. They often believe that they may not like certain books, especially being a chapter books, but soon begin to love the story and it's elements. I have to say most of my books have either disappeared or have been through the ringer. I want my students to be able to expose themselves to such great pieces of work. I appreciate any donations to my school library and I am sure my students this year and the coming years will as well.
