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

With all these manipulative, my kids will be able to use while playing and engaging with their peers. They will be socializing and taking turns while learning and having fun.

I work in a Title 1 school, most of my students are ELL, a lot of them are new to the country, and come from low income homes and some are from shelters.

By providing my kids with fun and engaging activities I can bring some sort of normalcy and stability for their education. I will use the math manipulatives to help students learn the value of money and to teach time. The manipulatives for literacy will help my students to blend and read words which will help with their reading fluency.
