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

I have visually impaired students who struggle to access print materials.

To support their learning, I am requesting Tonies, which will allow them to listen to books and engage with stories in an accessible way.

Additionally, I am seeking educational games to help them practice their English language skills. The decodable books included in this project will provide them with opportunities to reinforce phonics skills they have already learned. With these resources, I hope to create a more inclusive and engaging learning environment that meets their unique needs.
