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 Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate book series are books that I am frequently losing because they "grown legs." They are super engaging that some students just can't bring themselves to return them. I can't really get mad at children wanting to keep books to read and re-read but at the same time, I no longer have them available in my classroom library for other students to borrow. That's where your kindness and generosity comes in. I need to repurchase these books to have them available in my classroom library again.

It is important to have super engaging books in classroom libraries to really hook the kids into reading and the Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate book series are those series that kids can't keep their hands off.

Thank you in advance for making it possible for me to replace these highly engaging books that are difficult to keep on my classroom library shelf.
