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

These hands-on supplies will help all students understand the fundamentals of the alphabet. These manipulatives will help students learn and write their letters, understand their letter sounds, and even help improve fine motor development. Many of these materials will be used during centers since students love learning through hands-on manipulatives. These supplies will allow students to learn through writing, building, sculpting, sorting, matching, and more! This will also ensure that all students are able to learn their letters in a way best suitable to their learning style. This is imperative to student success now and in their future!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
