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

Everyone knows that basic reading skills should be accomplished by second grade. This is why exposing the world of books and reading to students at this age is so crucial.

This collection of books would be exciting and welcomed additions to our classroom library!

Students could be made aware of different heroes, themes and holidays in our multicultural world. My readers would be exposed to books about Lunar New Year and Asian cultures. This would then be followed with books about Black History month, and the contributions of African Americans in this country. Next, students would be able to celebrate Read Across America, with copies of Frog and Toad to keep and read at their leisure! This collection would be complete with added fables and fairy tales for my student readers. Surprisingly, some have not heard of classics like Snow White, and Cinderella! I want my students to know that reading books is a reward, something they "get" to do.

In addition, the writing boards are requested to better engage my students with their learning, while also reducing the use of paper.

Donor stars like you are important! While some classrooms receive parental donations, this is not the case with all communities. For this reason, your support is truly appreciated. Thank you.
