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

In order to get my pre-k students to master their letters, we need fun and interactive learning materials! The sand letter tray, construct a letter, and foam letters will make letter identification fun and hands on! The “all about the letter chart” will help students identify which letter we are focusing on. And the voice buttons will help make the classroom a third teacher by allowing me to step away from the table by leaving a voice recorded message with instructions.

Let’s get lettered up and ready to learn!

I will be setting up a dedicated letter learning table that students can explore during multiple hours of the day. With your help I can create a fun and dedicated space for students to learn at their own pace!
