Easel

My students need an easel so we can read big books to learn reading strategies and for writing to teach strategies to our budding writers!

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 Students

A typical day is trying to find a way to engage each and every learner. An easel like this one allows for a large place to show strategies through various methods to reach all types of learners!

I haven't met my new students yet but I know they will be a dynamic group who will love learning as much as I love teaching them!

My school is an amazing place. Every time you step into the building you feel welcome and like you belong to our family!

My Project

My students will learn new reading strategies to develop a lifelong love of reading. They will learn new writing strategies so they can learn to express themselves through print and tell wonderful stories! My students will also learn new math strategies that will begin their mathematical foundation for the future.

Donations to this project will help my students learn and help aid my wonderful lessons that I have planned for them.

The students will be able to see big books from anywhere in the meeting area which will allow for better learning to take place.
