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

I am asking for a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to incorporate reading and math centers for my diverse learners to support learning at their own pace and levels. The materials that I will be able to purchase with this gift card will be used within our center rotations so that students can work at their instructional level.

My diverse learners thrive off visual and hands-on learning so receiving this gift card will help me fulfill their different learning modalities.

My diverse learners need the most powerful instruction they can get and having these materials will help allow this to happen!
