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

These secret stories will help me build literacy with my first graders and help them become amazing readers. These stories make it a fun way to remember phonic rules and therefore, help them be successful readers. My goal to assure that all my students, no matter how they learn best, become successful. My goal is to have my first graders reading fluently by the end of the year! My students are a diverse group of students that are eager to learn and I want to be the bridge to their success.
