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

Reading and Math are fundamental to our students learning especially in PreK. These Reading and math resources will help my students develop conceptual print awareness, and word formation and also help to understand numerical correspondence.

Each and every student will utilize these selected resources during our Reading and Math rotations as well as the bilingual center rotations.

Reading and math manipulatives are essential ways for students to make cognitive connections with what they are learning. Each resource was specifically chosen based on the needs of my students in my bilingual classroom.
