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 provide inclusion services to K-5 students. In noisy classrooms, it can be hard to facilitate a group and balance volume. I don't want to interrupt other teaching or be too quiet for my kids to hear. I am requesting tabletop whiteboard, idea pads and whisper phones which will take our small reading groups to the next level.

Providing my kids with cool tools they can use to engage in reading instruction will be a huge motivator for their learning!

Who wouldn't want to be on a multi-way phone call during a group read.

Students who need support to pay attention will be able to increase their focus during small groups while having fun!
