Help me give my students tools to help them better their handwriting skills.

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 Students

My 50 kindergarteners are in the Extended Foreign Language Spanish program at an elementary school in a low-income area in the heart of Miami, Florida, where ninety-eight percent of the students are Hispanic and more than eighty percent are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite their economic challenges, these fun-loving 5 and 6-year-olds are at that wonderful stage where they are eager to learn and are inquisitive.

My students are active, hands-on kids who love to learn through experience.

My Project

The students will use the practice workbooks to help them build on their handwriting skills. I will use the highlighters to help those advanced students who do not need the workbook but still need help writing. The students will be able to trace over the highlighter. Also, students will use the magnetic boards to help practice their handwriting both capital and lower case letters. It will give them another opportunity to learn how to write their letters instead of just using paper and pencil. Students will be able to have fun and practice at the same time, while at the writing center.
