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 have a wonderful group of students. I have many students who are new to the country and are starting just starting their educational journey. I am asking to for resources that will help students become better readers and writers.

Half of my students are English language learners.

I would like sight words to build fluency. Students will be using these cards everyday to practice. I do have a students who are still learning their alphabet I have asked for flash cards and writing samples to help support that skill they are learning.

Thank you so much for considering donating to my wonderful group of students.
