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 one of these books will go directly into the hands of my students. As a reading intervention teacher, I work with students one-on-one to help them reach grade-level expectations in reading. I know from my teaching experience that students gain confidence and pride in carrying around a chapter book they can decode with current reading skills. Previous Donors Choose projects which enabled me to purchase books have proven this.

Placing books, at just the right level, in the hands of my students completely impacts reading skills, reading stamina, and reading growth.
