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

I will use this center in my classroom to help my students improve their writing skills.

I would love to have this writing center to give my students ample exposure to the purposes of writing independently and have structured time for them to work by themselves.

It would be very helpful during center time so my students can have a physical space to work and develop pre-writing and drawing skills by using a wide variety of tools, use increasingly complex and varied vocabulary, grammar and syntax in conversations and storytelling by communicating their ideas through drawing and through print.
