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 need assistance in learning to read. Although their reading skills improved last year, I believe that with more training, I will be able to help them soar in reading.

As an intervention teacher, I want to be equipped with all the tools available to help my students become better readers.

By taking the Phonemic Awareness training through IMSE, I will learn hands-on, interactive, and personalized instruction to understand phonological awareness and its importance in reading. Phonemic awareness is the stepping stone in a child's reading success. Thank you in advance for your donation towards my project.
