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'm moving to 2nd grade and want to make sure my students have the keys they need in order to continue to have a successful year in both reading and math. The books will help build our classroom library. The puzzles will help support students with math skills they will learn. The math games will help build confidence. The phonics kits will lend a hand to those needing a boost in reading skills. The magnetic letters will help them build words and vocabulary. These materials will help them become brighter one step at a time!
