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 kindergarten students are excited and ready to embark on their journey as readers. They are energetic, full of wonder and ready to learn. Learning happens at all moments and usually on the go!

They are eager to become independent readers.

My favorite moments are when my emerging readers make the connections and they begin reading. They are beaming with pride. The new fantastic world of reading awaits them!

My hope as their teacher is to help them become capable readers and fall in love with reading.

My Project

The materials I requested will help my students learn their sight words more effectively. Sight words are important when learning to read and help the students build fluency. Sight words help emerging readers gain the confidence to become successful readers. Learning sight words requires practice and memorization.

By incorporating a multi-sensory approach, I am targeting all learners.

Playdough and play sand can help my tactile learners while the puzzles and floor mats can help kinesthetic learners. Songs from the DVD can help auditory learners. The various materials included in this project will help me keep them engaged and motivated. We need sight word puzzles too.
