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

Our reading block is an important part of the day. I am requesting materials that will help us start on the right track.

I want to provide my students with resources that can be used to help all of them succeed in the areas of Reading.

The TPT gift card will be used for engaging activities that include vocabulary, manipulatives, and review. I will also use the card to purchase assessments and intervention materials for small group instruction. With these materials I can differentiate and provide what is needed for each student to succeed.

The dividers will be used during independent reading,to give them privacy and quiet time. They will also be used during assessments and review. The book buddy reading bags will be used to store their books. These book buddy will help them take care of their books when taking them home or other areas in the classroom.
