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

Every student deserves the opportunity to unlock the power of reading, a skill that opens the door to limitless possibilities. As an upper grades teacher (4th and 5th), it is really hard to see older students struggle to read.

The decodable books requested in this project are essential to build both fluency and confidence for older readers.

By donating to this project, you will help me help my students with the resources they need to succeed. Your support will make a lasting impact on their educational journey and beyond.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
