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

I haven't taught Second Grade in five years. Times and practices have definitely changed and I really want to prepare myself and refresh my 2/3 grade station materials.

I am asking for many manipulatives, tools, small group activities, and learning aids: flashcards, nameplates, place value flip charts, word family wheels, puzzles, globes, phonics centers, writing paper, bingo games, and et cetera.

Post-COVID teaching is kind of daunting and I do not want to go into it unprepared. I am big on creating thoughtful and efficacious stations and I believe these items will make them meaningful.

Thank you for your attention and contributions!

Ms. Richardson, Ed.S. Barack Obama Elementary School Grades PreK-2
