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

Help me give my students different games and manipulatives that will help them continue to develop early reading and math skills. Students will use the different CVC centers to learn how to read words with three sounds. Students will use the math centers and manipulatives to learn how to identify, write and count number to 10.

Kindergarten is an important year for reading; its when we learn that letters make words and words make sentences!

In math we learn that oral counting connects to physical quantity of objects! These tools will help us dvelop these skills in developmentally appropriate ways!
