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

I have a new class ELL (English Language Learners) Kindergarten and they are full of energy, enthusiastic and willing to learn new things this school year. They all come from different backgrounds and willing to go on a fun and different adventure. At the beginning of the year they will focus on their handwriting skill. My students will learn the proper letter formation. Letter formation is very important as it is needed in order to become an efficient writer and achieve well at school. I am asking for your for help to obtain an ALPHABET HANDWRITING WORKBOOK COMBINE BOTH TRACING & WRITING which it will help my students to develop this important skill.

My Project

The donations to this project will help to improve my students' handwriting skills.

By implementing letter formation, I will help my students become better writers in the future.

There are many benefits to having legible and efficient handwriting skills. Research had shown that helps the writer's attention and allow them to focus more their own writing. We will use these materials to aide us in the process of becoming life-long writers. These alphabet handwriting workbook will help my Kindergarten class to develop this skill. I truly need your support to make this a reality. Thank you!
