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

My classroom will be the first exposure to my Kindergarten students who are also English Language Learners. The Primary Notebooks will guide them when they first begin to write the letters of the alphabet. The red and blue lines will assist them to practice their letter formation. They will also have the opportunity to draw a corresponding picture for each letter using the Twistable Crayons, as well as, the Rainbow Crayons. Eventually, the students will write words and sentences to tell their own stories. Their creativity in writing will be endless.
