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 Students

One of the most rewarding experiences is watching children learn to read. It would be awesome to have help getting some of the supplies to make this hard task just a little easier.

I have the honor of working in a school with some of the most wonderful students.

I have an incredibly bright, spunky, curious, and diverse class of students. Of 22 students, 18 are first generation children of immigrants or immigrants from Mexico and Central America. My class is filled with vivid storytellers, brainy bookworms, mischievous goofballs, stubborn problem-solvers, creative thinkers, and clever inventors.

My Project

The students will use the math manipulatives to learn place value, financial literacy, and basic math problems (addition/subtraction). They will use the resources found in the Words Their Way books to be able to do word sorting during reading stations. Word sorting helps students to learn to read phonetically.

I currently spend hours using index cards to create and laminate word sorts for my students.

The Words their Way word sort books would give me ready-made station activities, which would free up valuable instructional time. Additionally, the math manipulatives would help me to use a hands-on approach to teaching place value and counting money.
