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.
My Project
I have a class full of kindergarten students who are filled with curiosity and longing to learn. It is amazing to know that these little minds are just waiting to explore and learn the world around them. Although most come not being able to read or write, this will not stop them from achieving their goals in reading and writing. I want to help be a part of this learning and am in need of help doing so. CVC words are a fundamental part of learning to read and are introduced in kindergarten. CVC stands for consonant-vowel-consonant, and these words are made up of three letters in that order.
With access to a variety of alphabet letter manipulatives, my kindergarten students can further develop fine motor skills and stimulate their hand-eye coordination while practicing their decoding skills to become the best readers they can be.
When they handle or manipulate small, age-appropriate, objects with their fingers they are demonstrating they can overcome potential difficulties such as awkward pencil grasp, slow drawing, and messy coloring. Additionally, with these resources, they will be practicing decoding by maneuvering the letter manipulatives. Decoding is an essential reading skill that involves breaking down a written word into its sounds and blending them together to say the word. It's a vital skill for literacy and is crucial in kindergarten. Please consider taking part in helping my kindergarteners have access to these resources necessary for their success.
