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

Students in my 3rd Grade Spanish Dual Language classroom aim to be fully biliterate scholars by the end of the academic year. According to Colorin Colorado, biliteracy is the ability to effectively communicate or understand written thoughts and ideas through the grammatical systems, vocabularies, and written symbols of two different languages. The materials in this project will aid students in developing their academic vocabulary in Spanish.

Students will use the games such as the "Make-A-Word Center – Syllables" kit in centers to develop their knowledge of "silabas" and create words and sentences to expand their academic writing.

The Spanish Syllables pocket chart will also aid students in reading "silabas" and sight words with the flashcards I am asking for. The plastic folders will be used to collect and store their writing materials. They will keep their organizers, drafts, and important papers safe. Overall, all of the materials and the Spanish growth mindset posters will aid in welcoming the students to a biliterate community while encouraging them to persevere as they communicate, read, and write in Spanish.
