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

Students are halfway through first grade and their foundational skills have improved. There is time for students to end the school year strong and get them ready for the upcoming school year. My goal is for all students to be reading at grade level once they finish first grade. These reading materials will help them.

During independent work time and small group centers, I will have students use these instant reading centers throughout the day and it is geared to their reading needs.

My goal is for all students to be prepared and continue to practice their skills. Happy New Lunar Year and upcoming Chinese New Year!
