Celebrating 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.
The first grade students in my classroom are fun, energetic, and witty! They are also diverse in ethnicity, economics, and academics. We are a Title I, dual-language school in a Seattle neighborhood. The students in my class, and within our school, speak a wide variety of languages including Spanish, Vietnamese, Cambodian, and Somali, among others. However, one common denominator is that they all work hard and want more. They want more knowledge, they want more out of life, and they love to learn! In order to do that, they need the materials that can help them be successful and continue to want to be lifelong learners.
My Project
First grade is full of learning and reading is a huge part of that! However, not all students have had the practice or opportunities they have needed delving into phonics or even books for that matter.
I would like to give my students some basic supplies for their literacy intervention work with me as well as materials they can work on with partners.
These supplies include phonics center games they can use at our table as well as in groups, letter making materials that use Wikki Stixs and play dough so they can build the letters while making the sounds and feeling it for my kinesthetic learners, and flash cards for both the alphabet and sight words as these are important to have in a first grade classroom.
