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 English Language learners who love to increase their reading skills. The students range from first grade to sixth grade. All students are taught skills that will help them become fluent readers. Students are working on their phonemic awareness skills for forty-five minutes each day to implement skills taught while learning.

My Project

Any donation provided will greatly impact student achievement!

This project will contribute to assisting English Language learners build new skills to increase their knowledge.

This project will also help myself improve on teaching techniques as I begin educating young minds. Students will become more engaged throughout the lessons with the donations. Books donated will contribute to read aloud selections done in class to give students various genres of text. Each donation will have a purposeful impact in all of the students learning to further their education. This assistance provided is greatly appreciated!
