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 are fantastic! I have 7 English learners in my classroom this year. They are so sweet, kind, and CAN NOT wait to master the English language. My students have so much potential.

Having these hands-on materials will help motivate my students and facilitate their journey to learning the English language.

English is such a complicated language. Having different ways to learn it, different games, different stories, different ways to- listen, speak, read, and write, will be a game changer for my students. They will have fun as they are learning. With these materials, my students will be speaking English in no time!

Mastering English in 1st grade is essential for my English learners. This will help my students be successful in all the years to come.
