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 bookshelf will help my students organize their books for their indoor and outdoor activities and encourage them to read. Having the shelf for the books will help my students understand how to be organized and take care of books.

My class is a dual language class, and this bookshelf will help me expand language and reading in the classroom.

During learning time, the students will be able to reach for books and able to practice their letters and numbers. The student will be able to compare books and will engage then in deepening their thoughtfulness and enjoyment of literature.
