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

My students loved the Grab and Play math games so much I decided it would be fun to try the reading games. These Grab and Play reading games will help my students with skills ranging from sounding out words to answering comprehension questions.

Students often need motivation when reading isn't easy for them.

These games will encourage my students to want to read in a fun way! My goal is that my students will not only build their reading skills, but become more confident when answering comprehension questions and understanding parts of stories.

My students are hard workers who want to learn. Sometimes they just need that extra push to help bring them up to the next level. They all learn in their own way and will truly benefit from this group of games that cover a wide range of learning targets.
