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

I have a class of adorable, energetic, eager to learn 4–5-year-old students. For my class project, "Building a Love for Learning in Kindergarten!" I am asking for games to help my students learn how to identify how many syllables in words, how to identify rhyming words and how to blend sounds together to read and build words.

My goals for this project are to help my students learn phonological awareness skills in a fun, engaging, age appropriate and developmentally appropriate way so they can view learning as fun and not as a chore.

Please help my dream of instilling a love of learning in my students, a reality.
