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 letter tubs requested are a great way to learn letter names and sounds. Resources are often made for students who speak English and not often made for speakers of other languages.This resource is amazing because it available in both Spanish and English which is the languages my students are learning to read in. My school is a 50/50 Spanish and English elementary school and this resource will help students harness their biliteracy skills.

Students will be able to look at, sort and name objects for each letter sound and they will be able to do it in two languages!
