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 love to share and write stories. They are eager to learn and want to improve their writing. Most students have problems writing on lines and writing clearly. Handwriting aides will help them be successful in their writing.

Handwriting tools for spacing letters help students write words more clearly.

These tools help build the confidence of students in their writing. The pencil grips also help build fine motor skills which is essential in handwriting.

With these tools students can write with confidence. This will increase what they write and making writing more enjoyable for students.
