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

My students are all book lovers! Now that the Fall season has started, there’s so much to learn about. Rotating books is something that I do in my classroom. I like to put out new books that go what the theme or topic that we are learning about.

Being able to receive stories such as the “Wonderfall and The Leaf Thief” would be wonderful to add to our library!

My students are so eager to learn about what Fall is all about.

My students are the best! We learn through reading book, play, and watching short videos about things that go with the themes that we are focused on.
