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

Hello! Help me grow the little minds of our kinder kiddos in their reading ability, through the art of phonics. Phonics is the key foundation to amazing readers. All the letter supports on this list will help my kinder kiddos learn letters and sounds to build the basic foundation for good reading. The same letters will give the kids the tools to then build great blending skills to read words.

Different games and tools like Bubble Boards, spelling mats, alphabet cards, tactile letters, and phonics tiles will make blending fun.

These tools will make learning cool as the kiddos practice their phonic skills and sharpen their abilities to read. The amazing academic tools on this list will foster learning and the love of reading.
