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 students will be able to learn reading and math through interactive and hands on activities. My goal for the project is to get fun ways to learn reading and math into my students' hands. By using hot dots, my students will improve their reading and math skills while having fun.

My students are special in that they are Title I and do not have the resources at home to enhance their learning.

Hot dots will help provide those resources at school. The batteries and the pens are essential to using the hot dots books.
