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

This year my kids have shown a bigger interest in reading than in previous years. I would love to be able to add new titles to our classroom library for my kids to enjoy. Our classroom library is very limited. The books that are do have were given to me by retiring teachers or are very old. The books I ordered will help brighten up our library. The books will help in units we are reviewing as mentor texts/text sets. Also, I added a lot of nonfiction books to support what we are learning in science/social studies.
