This is my very first classroom in the United States, and I want to give my students the very best start possible by building a rich classroom library and a learning space where they feel seen, valued, and empowered.
Reading is the foundation for language development, and I want to give my students access to high-quality Spanish books that will spark their love for stories, help them build vocabulary, and deepen their connection to the language.
My goal is to build a small classroom library filled with engaging, culturally rich books in Spanish — from picture books and folktales to simple nonfiction. These books will serve as windows to the world — all while growing as readers.
When you support this project, you're not just donating books. You’re helping children gain confidence, fluency, and joy in their learning journey.
