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

The use of literacy center activities is a daily occurrence in my classroom. Using the poster paper and cardstock, students help to create literacy centers that are of high interest to them. The Sharpie markers allow the students to create colorful and lively posters to help them with their literacy development as well as provide an easy place for them to show and share their work.

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student literacy skills, but you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

Students will be able to simply create literacy activities to help them read and not have to worry about whether they have the materials needed to be able to do so.
