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

Bringing books to life adds a meaningful and impactful experience to learning how to become better communicators in speech and language therapy. Narrative abilities and expressive language skills addressed in speech therapy will be carried over into the classroom by implementing the 'wishlist book and play manipulatives' that will be used for retelling, role-playing, and narrative purposes.

My bilingual students are a culturally diverse group of students who do not have access to these storybook manipulatives, which will be used to increase and captivate their love for reading and retelling.
