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

I am currently working with 24 bright and eager 3rd graders. They are great readers and are well on their way to becoming great writers. These materials will allow me to demonstrate how to write a good paragraph, I can use the post it sheets to allow my students to reference samples around the room. They will also be able to write their own examples on the large sheets and present it to their peers. The markers will not only be for my use but for the students as well.

The markers will allow them to add a pop of color to their group writing.

It will also allow them to differentiate key details from the main idea.
