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 Students

Help us have fun with phonics! My students need to be hooked on phonics and have a blast while learning the rules of phonics. However, they need hands-on activities in order to do it!

I teach in a K-3 special education classroom in a neighborhood public school.

My wonderful students need opportunities to learn in unique and creative ways in order to help them grow. My students greatly vary in their reading ability and level, and they need differentiated learning centers in order to help them learn at their level.

My Project

My students need phonics centers that will help them learn the rules of phonics at their specific levels. I'm requesting hands-on phonics puzzles and centers that vary in difficulty and will help my students grow and learn with the specific skill that we are working on.

Please help my students acquire the hands-on materials that they need in order to grow at their reading level!

These students need engaging and fun materials in order to work on the phonics skill at their specific level. Please help these students acquire the fun and engaging materials that they need!
