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.

I am a kindergarten special education teacher. Eighty percent of my students are english language learners.

We are in desperate need of books that integrate parts of the day together because there is simply not enough hours in the to teach everything that you want to.

We need books that will help us learn more in science, social studies and math. These books will compliment our lessons perfectly and engage the students. These books will allow the teacher to incorporate more of these lessons into the literacy block during the day.

These books will provide the students to learn more about math, science ad social studies because they will be able to be used during other components of the day. Please help us we need these books!
