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

Students are now less exposed to reading and magazines since technology came along. However, having these magazines donated to the class will help my students become successful readers by being able to annotate and apply the reading skills to become successful. Along with that Scholastic provides more tools and research along with their digital technologies. So students will have the best of both worlds magazines and digital magazines. Please help me fund my class for these amazing reading magazines. Having both can help students be successful since they will have two versions.
