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 Students

My students come from many different places all coming to learn and improve their English skills. Please help supply my students with literacy games to help support their language journey.

My students come from low income homes.

They come to school eager to learn but often lack the resources at home to support and encourage their drive. These students need a positive influence in their life wherever they can get it. A donation from a complete stranger would truly show them the support and kindness they need.

My Project

I want my students to experience different modalities of learning. By providing my students with literacy games they will get hands on learning. They will be able to manipulate words to learn to form grammatically correct sentences, use flip books to learn the patterns in word families. They will also improve their vocabulary with the activities that teach directional words and opposites.

This project will make a difference by supporting students who are learning English across grades K-5.

You will be supporting students coming from different backgrounds and different home lives. By donating to this project you will help a diverse community of learners.
