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

My students are from Las Vegas, Nevada. They are a fun and very diverse group that is eager to learn. They learn best by doing hands-on activities.

They have expressed to me that they want to learn how to be fluent readers.

However, due to the pandemic last year they did not have many opportunities to do many hands-on activities because they were virtual most of the year. They are currently doing in-person learning and I want to provide more tools to help them become fluent readers.

My Project

Every day we have centers during small group time. I would like to add some new centers for my students. Right now we are using worksheets, puzzles, books, and computer programs. I would like to expand our library to have the students be excited to read. I want some new reading games/activities to expand their learning.

The Nevada Academic Content Standards covered are:

1 .RL.1.1

Ask and answer questions about key details in a text.

2. RL.1.2

Retell stories, including key details, and demonstrate understanding of their central message or lesson.

3. RL.1.7

Use illustrations and details in a story to describe its characters, setting, or events.

4. RF.1.2d

Segment spoken single-syllable words into their complete sequence of individual sounds (phonemes).

5. RF.1.4

Read with sufficient accuracy and fluency to support comprehension.

6. RF.1.4a

Read on-level text with purpose and understanding.
