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

Are you interested in making an investment in the future? If so, look no further! I am a Reading Specialist who works with K-5 students that currently face difficulties with reading. My students are reading 2 to 3 grade levels behind their peers, and I am committed to providing them with the support they need to succeed and catch up. By utilizing the right resources and tools, I believe we can improve their reading skills more effectively.

By utilizing Apple iPads into our daily instruction, students are likely to exhibit increased focus and motivation, ultimately leading to enhanced reading abilities.

In my classroom, I use evidence-based intervention programs that cover decoding/phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension to help students achieve success.

Incorporating technology into our lessons is essential for preparing students for the future. I utilize various intervention programs such as 95RAP, Class Dojo, CORE 5, and MobyMax, just to name a few, to support student progress. Additionally, I lead a Blooket Club, an interactive platform that reinforces learning through a game-based approach. With the implementation of the Apple iPads, I intend to make an investment in the future by providing valuable educational tools for shaping young minds and fostering literacy skills. Will you please help me in this endeavor? Thank you for your support!
