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 need to keep up with the latest advancements in education in order to spark an interest in reading. Education is changing every single day, and so are the interest of my students. Students at my school like to read about kids that have interests and problems like them. The library has a large collection of books, but many are outdated. My aim is to have books will hold their interests and keep them reading.

Students who say they don't like reading, just haven't found the book that speaks to them!

I strongly believe that all kids can enjoy reading, as long as they get the right book. With these new titles (I think all were written in the last couple years), students will get the newest and best books available that will hopefully interest them to keep on reading.
