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 many of you may know I have transferred to a new school in Queens! My co-teacher and I want to give our students the best opportunity to become leaders by providing a beautiful classroom library.

Students can get lost with inventor books while relaxing on a comfortable carpet of the world.

Our magnetic book shelves will help us highlight books that relate to our reading modules. This will also allow for the students to display books for their friends and add a book review display. As you know readers today become leaders tomorrow.
