Help me give my students learning centers! I started my second year of teaching in a new Title 1 school. I want to provide my students with the manipulatives and tools to explore literacy collaboratively.

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 23 students in my 3rd grade classroom. My students come to school eager to learn and explore new ideas. What makes my students so special is their ability to try new things and ask questions. They are always asking questions to learn more about a topic we are discussing.

These materials will make a difference in their learning by providing the appropriate tools to implement learning centers.

Students will be able to work collaboratively to complete tasks that are differentiated and purposeful. Students will be given opportunities to work independently and in groups to complete the tasks in each center to encourage their understanding of a topic, such as phonics, vocab, and comprehension.
