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

We are looking for some fun games that students can play to learn their phonics and phonemic awareness. Phonics and phonemic awareness are very important in the development of reading for students. If they are not engaged in learning, they will struggle to read. These games Fidget Word Pop, Splash Reading Games, Snap it Up Phonics, Elkonin Boxes, Reading Games Sound Mats, and the Dry Erase Phonemic Awareness Game are all games that students can play that will build their reading skills.

Games to learn phonics and phonemic awareness for our youngest learners.

These materials can greatly help our youngest learners. Learning phonics and phonemic awareness is essential in teaching students to learn. These materials can help our students so much. Thank you for your generous donations that helped to fund this project. We are so blessed to have donors like you.
