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

Being able to offer my students an enticing and exciting classroom library will help them to become great thinkers. They are full of curiosity and a hunger to learn about the world outside of our community. Our current classroom library could use a boost to continue to support their desire to explore the world.

“A child who reads will be an adult who thinks” - unknown.

Help my students to become great thinkers!

Having a wide range of books to choose from in the classroom will encourage them to challenge themselves and to become great thinkers of the future. Keeping these new books organized will help them to explore new topics and dive deeper into the ones they love!
