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

Dear Donors,

Kindergarten is a time to play and have fun!

Kindergarteners also learn about reading and writing. With the phonics games, students will learn about letter sounds and blending words. I will read the stories about writing and kindergartners will practice writing in their individual journals. Students will use the mini white boards to practice writing letters and words in a low risk way. White boards can easily be erased when a mistake is made. The dry erase pockets are nice for teaching students how to write on a variety of graphic organizers that can be put in the pockets.
