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 Students

Our students are English language learners, primarily Hispanic and Latino, as well as some students from the Congo. They are across grade levels from Kindergarten through 5th grade, and we have been virtual for the entire 2020-2021 school year. Some of our students are newcomers (who arrived to the United States within the past few years), while many were born and raised here.

My Project

Virtual Learning poses a special challenge for newcomers. Many of the hands-on activities we use for language development are lost in the virtual space. That is why we would like to invest in digital activities to inspire our young learners as we embark in this new chapter, focused on reading development. We will be working with English letter sounds and sight words, to help them develop their reading skills, while also acquiring a new language. Various interactive digital activities will allow students to create words and practice reading and writing the way they would in the classroom.
