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 activities are beneficial for my students because ELA/ELD and MATH skills are constantly being taught in my classroom. I wish to engage my students with hands on activities that can help develop their reading, writing and money skills.

Reading is a big part of my classroom and with these reading activities, such as the Reading Comprehension Games Library and the assorted English Language Development centers, my students will not only love them but they will willingly participate with them.

Writing is also commonly practiced in my classroom and with these activities my students will learn skills in sentence building. Math is also an important skill specifically money math. I wish to teach my students about money math because it is very important for students to be able to identify, add and subtract their own money.

By implementing these academic activities my students will highly benefit from one to one work and small group work. I have seen how eager my students are to learn in my classroom and hope that these additional activities will help them
