FULLY FUNDED! Ms. W.'s classroom raised $228

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 Students

As a teacher in a low-income/high poverty school district, I work with students who are faced with several challenges both in and out of the classroom. Despite the many challenges they face, I am looking to keep things simple and provide my students with creative and meaningful learning experiences.

They like to move, they love to read and love lots of positive attention.

Many of them are being raised in single parent households and receive a free lunch based on their socioeconomic status. My students walk into our classroom every day full of life, ready to learn, and excited for what is in store for them that day.

My Project

I will use these materials for whole group instruction to review sight words but also during small group instruction. I use High Frequency word flash cards to teach phonic skills, so they are able to apply those phonic skills to other unknown words they might come across. These High Frequency Word materials will continue to enhance the print-rich classroom that I strive to create. I want my classroom to be a place that my students really enjoy reading. All of these materials been chosen with my students in mind. These materials will help my students reach reading success.
