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 books I have requested will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. These books will be added to my classroom library, which is a place with comfortable seating and a quiet place to read independently! They love going to our class library once they have completed their independent work or even when they need a place to decompress. Our books are treated with love and respect, and they are grateful to have more opportunities to read.

The best way to increase a student's true love for reading is to read everyday.

These books will continue to help my students become stronger readers and they will be able to choose from a variety of books and will allow them to read independently, on their reading level, including my bilingual students. Please note that our books are treated with love and respect, and they are grateful to have more opportunities to read.
