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

As an enthusiastic educator, I am writing to you today to seek your generous support in promoting fun reading activities for our students who come from lower socioeconomic backgrounds.

I strongly believe that reading is the cornerstone of a child's education and success.

However, for students from disadvantaged backgrounds, access to engaging and enjoyable reading resources can be limited. Many of our students lack the resources and support at home needed to foster a love for reading in their formative years.

To address this critical need, we are asking for fun activities to capture our students attention. Some of the kits I have requested combine reading and problem-solving skills. Children can use a tablet along with the Osmo Reading Adventure and special game pieces to solve mysteries by reading clues and making deductions. It's a fun way to build comprehension and critical thinking skills. Other kits have an interactive pen and dry erase sheet so that we are able to use them for many years with a variety of students.
