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

Literacy is so important for life success. As an English teacher, it is important to instill in my students a love for reading and learning. I work with an amazing group of students with special needs. I want to motivate them to read, unfortunately, I don't have that many books in my class that are at their independent reading level. My classroom selection is so limited that my students have already read them and/or are no longer interested.

I want to provide them with books about the things that are interesting to them.

My school library has books but they are too high for my students or they are not interesting to them. Our students' families have difficulty accessing the public library due to transportation issues. I want to bring access to my students.
