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

Phonics is a huge component in early literacy. Therefore, I want to make sure students have the materials we need in order to learn how to code and decode. We want to strengthen kindergartener's foundational skills so they have what they need to be successful not only in school but in their future.

My kiddos are working so hard learning and it will be important to provide them the things they need so they can continue to learn.

Students will inevitable have a higher success rate with the use of manipulatives and games to learn fundamental skills such as phonics. My hope is that we can achieve this with these materials!
