Young Dual Language Learners

Help me give my students resources that will provide opportunities for them to learn in two languages!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Martinez's classroom raised $927

This project is fully funded

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

These resources will help our youngest learners engage in developmentally appropriate play that will develop oral language in both English and Spanish. The pocket charts will be filled with poems, chants and songs for kindergarten and first grade students to develop reading school and a love for learning.

Students learn best when they are having fun!

The sorting activities, math games and alphabet practice will give students many opportunities to practice skills and cement their learning while having fun!

It takes a village to support our next generation of learners! We appreciate any contribution you can make!
