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.

If you want students to read, you need to supply them with books that interest them. I teach third grade at P.S.169, a Title 1 school in Sunset Park Brooklyn. Many of my students are English Language Learners.

All of my students love the series Goosebumps. Students who say they don't enjoy reading, enjoy Goosebumps. Students who struggle with reading try their best for Goosebumps. Students who are intimidated by chapter books face their fear for Goosebumps. I know because my Goosebumps series books are falling apart - a true testament to their popularity.

It is hard for my students to read books with pages falling out or missing. It would be wonderful to receive a new Goosebumps series of 36 books for my class. I know that the addition of these new books to my classroom library would increase the children's excitement about reading!

Funding this proposal will continue my student's love of scary stories...and reading!
