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

My students are an amazing group who the majority I have had the pleasure of teaching for five years. Many of them have overcome obstacles due to their disabilities and I have never been so proud of them. For my new students coming into my class, I plan on using these materials to help them develop letter sounds and identify letters and numbers. Each of my student learns at a different pace and in a different way that makes them unique. Help us start off our 2022-2023 school year with a bang!
