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 work with the bilingual population at our primary school in Payson, Arizona. Most of my English Language Learners struggle with reading and fluency.

The materials I have selected for my students are mainly geared towards helping my students in reading comprehension with building phonics games and fill in the blank stamps.

The class goals are for more fluency and self motivation in reading and writing. Which makes motivating my students to become actively, engaged in their own learning very satisfying. I look forward to working with these donated materials.
