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 the following school year, I will be in a 3rd & 4th bridged self-contained classroom. With that in mind, I am thinking about resources that would be a great addition for my students.

As a special education teacher, manipulatives are a life savior in our classroom!

Many of my special needs students are visual and kinesthetic learners and would benefit heavily from these tools.

Multiplication and division can be very challenging topics for my 3rd and 4th graders. The white boards are color coded specifically to help students break down the placement of numbers.

Students will use the task cards in order to build literacy and reading comprehension skills.

We will use the dry-erase boards in my classroom to learn multiplication and division.
