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

We would love to supply our class with more interactive writing and reading materials! The reusable erase pockets help our students practice their writing skills and can be used over and over again throughout the day during literacy, math, fine motor, and science time! The voice buttons help our students during independent work time by giving them the opportunity to practice listening, speaking, and writing skills. They are also a fun way to differentiate student work time! CVC cards help students with blending beginning, middle, and ending sounds while leading them on their way to reading! A Teachers Pay Teachers gift card is a great way to help support our classroom with ready to go lesson plans and helps support creative educators from all over as well.
