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

The Spellography program focuses on spelling concepts explicitly, systematically, and cumulatively to help all students make sense of the English spelling system, and thus become better at understanding, reading, and writing words.

IMSE uses multi-sensory techniques to help students retain information, practice skills and achieve success in morphology.

Students will be able to use their decoding and encoding knowledge and build their fluency and comprehension skills by using these readers daily to practice! By applying and practicing the skills they have learned, I hope to see great reading progress. These resources will help our students grow and make progress with their reading skills while also providing explicit examples of model activities for encoding resources for professional developments in reading that I facilitate at my school.
