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 reading below grade level, so I want to equip them with the tools they need to succeed in reading.

With the items from this project, small group time will be more engaging and help my students retain the skills they learn to read.

I'm requesting phoneme phones so that my students can hear themselves read. Hearing your voice is weird, but I hope they help them with their robot reading. I also request various segmenting games to help my students build their spelling skills. With the items from these, my students learn best when using different learning modalities.
