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 classroom is full of vibrant, supportive young learners who thrive when working in small groups. They love to help one another decode new words, build new sounds, and cheer each other on when they reach their reading milestones.

These incredible materials will transform our small reading groups into an engaging, dynamic space where every student can thrive.

The colorful book bins will help keep our reading materials perfectly organized and accessible. The magnetic holder will allow us to display important reading strategies, phonics rules, and syllable structures at eye level so students can refer to them. Additionally, the sturdy pocket charts will serve as interactive learning stations where students can sort syllables and build sight words. Finally, the adjustable standing desk gives students a comfortable, alternative workspace to practice their reading.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
