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 work with K-2 at-risk readers who need an engaging, research-based, systematic, and structured intervention program. The Hand2Mind resource kit will provide engaging literacy tools for multi-sensory, hands-on phonics instruction.

The Guided Phonics program and materials will help all my at-risk readers access engaging lessons, activities, and literacy tools to help them reach and exceed their literacy goals.

The Hand2Mind resources contain many resources to help implement a range of foundational skills to help all my students gain and access grade-level foundational skills. The different levels will help with providing my students with differentiated foundational skills. Your donations will help all my at-risk students gain the necessary skills to improve their reading, writing, and spelling skills.
