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

Carpet time! Nothing could be better! Time to learn, to read, to have a classroom meeting. No classroom is complete without an easel! My students need an easy to see easel!

My 12 second and third grade students attend a 12:1:1 special education program in a Title 1 funded school.

The disabilities affecting my students include learning disabled, autism, and intellectual disabilities. My students love learning and being a part of group instruction. Many of them are visual learners and they need to see what I will instruct.

My Project

Research has proven that modeling reading strategies and recording one's thinking benefits students' reading comprehension. This is really hard to do without using an easel and chart paper. If I have this easel, we will use it every day during my reading mini lesson and students will get to refer back to it as they try the strategies in guided reading or independently.

Help our students become better thinkers!

Providing an easel will allow students to see the reading strategies and examples of how to use them. It will really support their understanding of text!
