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 kindergarten students have been working hard this year and are ready to practice independently what we have been practicing this year. The seat cushions will give them a comfortable place to sit when they are working at the writing center or around the room at a spot of their choosing. The spinners and the dice will add a fun element to practicing handwriting skills and sight word recognition. The plastic covers, laminating pouches and thin dry erase markers will help protect the activities so that they can practice again and again. I can't wait to see them practice on their own and make tons of progress!
