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

This project will empower students to become confident, critical readers who can analyze any text deeply. It will also foster a collaborative classroom culture where students support each other in their learning journey. The skills developed through this project will enhance students' reading comprehension, academic performance, and setting them up for success in future grades and beyond.

By incorporating games and dry erase boards into their learning, students will become more engaged and active participants in their learning process.

The games will provide immediate feedback and an opportunity for students to practice making inferences in a fun, interactive way. Dry erase boards will allow students to quickly share their thoughts and collaborate, reinforcing their learning while giving them an easy way to track their progress.

Thank you for supporting the development of our students' critical thinking and inferencing skills!
