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

Each day, I pull a small group of students to help them develop their English language skills using a specific curriculum that we enjoy learning from. The lessons are rich and engaging. Still, we could use more hands-on activities to enrich them. I have been researching different games and activities that can supplement what we learn at the end of each lesson, and I am looking forward to using some of the things I've found in my classroom.

The resources I'm requesting will motivate my students and make them have fun Picture bingo, bilingual readers, and vocabulary-building games will give them the confidence they need to continue using the English language I also included a few books because I have a soft spot for when my students ask me for specific titles to complete collections, and I will always promote reading.
