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

My Kindergarten students who are English Language Learners will receive extra support by using pictures and letter sounds to use their auditory and visual learning experiences on the Smartboard. They will be able to match the letter sounds with objects on the Smartboard which will be connected to the Apple MacBook Air. Our school is a Title I school and we require extra resources and technology. Technology grabs the students' attention. Through educational play on the MacBook Air, my English Language Learners will use their communication skills since they will work in partnerships or small groups.
