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 part-time educator in a 2nd grade classroom, I aim to ignite a love for reading among my students by enriching their classroom library with popular and engaging book series. By adding beloved titles such as "Dog Man," "My Weird School," "Big Nate," and "Junie B. Jones,"

I hope to captivate young readers and encourage independent reading.

These new additions will not only be available for students to explore during their independent reading time but will also be allowed for borrowing to take home, fostering a reading culture beyond the classroom. This initiative is designed to create an enjoyable and supportive reading environment for all students. Thank you for considering this request to help cultivate a lifelong passion for reading in our young learners.

Mrs. Lauria will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 11.
