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

This project includes engaging literacy and math materials for my kindergarten students! These hands-on activities focus on literacy and math skills that are taught throughout the school year. Students will use these materials during their reading and math small group and station time.

The word work activities will help students segment and blend words.

The math activities will help students master number representation, subitizing, addition, and subtraction.

Your generous donation will support my students develop their fundamental reading and math skills! Please help me make learning engaging and fun for my kindergartners!
