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 love that my students are motivated and ready to learn! They are extra special because I am fortunate to be able to teach them the strategies they need to learn to read.

These materials will make a difference in their learning because these tools are just what they need to complete their daily reading lessons.

These are just the hands on markers, letters, white boards, erasers and pencils are items that they will use daily to move, write and learn new words. Every day my kiddos have a new lesson on letter or word learning. They can't wait to play the letter race games. The time flies by way too fast when we're having fun while learning!
