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

My scholars enjoy coming to my resource class to receive their phonics, dyslexia, comprehension, and writing support needed to improve their academic needs. When they attend my classroom, they do a great job following the classroom producers and are engaged in their intervention lessons.

My scholars required materials and supplies that will help increase their decoding, encoding and rhyming skills.

The rhyming puzzles will help reinforce how rhyming words work by using the puzzles in their daily practice routine. These puzzles will enhance there rhyming skills when presented with rhyming words.

The decodable readers will support my students with their decoding skills by daily fluency reading practice.

The handwriting workbooks will support my students weak handwriting skills by practicing on lined practice paper. This will help my instruction when teaching letter formation.

The erasers and pencils are attention grabbers for my students to use when working on their letter formation skills.
