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 students are eager to learn and desire the opportunity to learn through play. My students are bilingual speakers that do not have access to books in English. These students crave the opportunity but there are no libraries within walking distance. Parents sometimes do not have the resources to get the students to the library. Therefore, my goal is to provide them with a take-home library and tools in the classroom to help them grow. The flashbot with the flashcards will be used with students during small groups that need further aid. While it is interactive and fun, students get the chance to practice orally blending, initial sounds, CVC, and segmentations which will transfer to spelling. The mesh bags will be used for workstations, the hole puncher will be used in our writing station for their work. The laminator will be used to send home keepsakes of students' work.
