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 absolutely love how curious, enthusiastic, and resilient my students are. They come to school each day full of energy and ready to take on the challenge of learning to read. For many of them, reading can feel overwhelming at first—but they never give up. What makes them so special is their determination and their joy in small victories, like reading a word for the first time or recognizing a pattern they’ve learned.

Rime Magic will be a game-changer in our classroom.

It’s a fast, fun, and highly effective way to help my students recognize word patterns and build reading fluency. By focusing on common word parts (rimes), students gain the confidence to decode new words quickly, which leads to greater reading success and excitement about books. With Rime Magic, I can meet each student where they are and give them the tools they need to become strong, joyful readers.
