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

It is almost a school year full of learning and engagement. Our kindergarten students have made significant progress as well as learning foundational skills. With these hands-on literacy tools students will continue to learn the following:

-Write all of the letters of the alphabet in both upper and lowercase.

-Correctly write their first and last name.

-Print correct letter symbols to correspond with pictures.

-Write and correctly spell some simple consonant-vowel-consonant words (i.e., cat)

Scholars need to meet these foundational skills in order to go to next grade and meet these important skills.
