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

When it comes to the wonder of reading, Dr. Seuss said it best, “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” But how do we make sure that every student has the opportunity to read, learn, and “go” all those amazing places that reading can take them?

My students are struggling readers who need the opportunity to become capable learners.

The kindergarten through third-grade students I work with are reading well below grade level. Having struggled with basic reading skills, they need intensive, targeted intervention to help them improve their reading, which is vital to their success in all academic areas.

To add to their reading challenges, my students live in a low-income neighborhood where they face numerous disadvantages. Unable to control what goes on outside of school, I try to make the most of their time with me by doing what I can do to maximize their learning. They need engaging literacy instruction and rich, meaningful learning that will help them overcome their challenges and experience that 'wonder of reading.'

My Project

Who better to seek help from with teaching reading than teachers? The Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT) gift cards will provide access to a vast source of fun, dynamic, and effective ways of teaching.

The gift cards will be used for activities that will engage students in rigorous learning that can lead to mastery of essential literacy skills.

This will include slides, games, and other resources that will allow me to engage students in multisensory, evidenced-based learning and practice. And with so many expertly-created resources, students will be able to interact with the literacy concepts and skills we are learning in multiple ways.
