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

We are seeking donations to provide individual sound charts for our students to support their writing development. These charts display key phonemes and corresponding visuals, empowering students to independently identify and use sounds as they write. By having their own personal reference tool, students can build confidence, improve spelling, and strengthen their phonemic awareness—essential skills for early literacy. Your contribution will help equip each child with the resources they need to become more independent and successful writers.

Individual sound charts are a powerful tool in helping young learners connect spoken sounds to written letters, fostering independence in their writing.

With these charts at their fingertips, students can easily reference the phonemes they hear and translate them into written words without waiting for teacher assistance. This not only boosts their confidence but also encourages active engagement and perseverance in the writing process. By donating, you are directly supporting our goal to provide each student with the tools they need to grow as confident, capable writers.
