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

I teach reading intervention for a diverse group of students from 1st through 5th grades. We are learning everything from short vowel sounds in English to blending advanced syllables in Spanish. We are currently using some more basic materials. Students want a wide variety of engaging materials.

We need these materials to be specific to exactly what students need at their unique stage of literacy development.

The magnet strips and blank tiles will allow me to create specific syllables in Spanish and unique blends in English. The tactile letters will give students a new way of learning letter names and sounds.
