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

The book series in this project are ones that are very popular in this age group. When we visit the library, a lot of the time many of these are checked out and my students are unable to check them out. If this project is funded, copies of the entire series will be available for this group of students and my future students to come.

Roblox is popular among this age group and the set would make a great entry point for my nonreaders and readers to get curious and explore, especially my boys.

This or That is popular amongst all students and my girls love The Owl Series. I look forward to growing my library into one my students look forward to checking out and growing their love for reading.
