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

Hi all! My goal is to offer my students engaging games that will make independent learning time more engaging for them.

These items will make our literacy and math centers a lot more fun and we know that students learn best through intentional play!

I am mostly excited about the bilingual bingo game that I found since we are a dual language classroom. All of these materials will help my students tremendously, as many of them are new to the country and in need of extra learning support. Thank you for helping make learning fun!
