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 amazing students love to be read to. After lunch we sit on the carpet and read a really good chapter book. They love it and I love it. There's no test at the end, there's no calling on students to see if they are paying attention. It's just a time for us to cool-down after recess and dive into a great book. The books listed on my project are highly recommended from other 5th grade teachers. Your donation will also limit screen time and capture the reader! Thank you!
