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 Third Graders are a vibrant group of learners who are full of curiosity and potential, but I've noticed a real need for more engaging and targeted reading support. That's why I'm reaching out for help to bring some amazing resources into our classroom! I'm hoping to get materials that include leveled fiction and non-fiction reading comprehension card sets, like the ones from Lakeshore, to help me meet each child where they are. They're designed to foster critical thinking skills, build their confidence, and spark a genuine love for reading across all different genres.

Reading isn't the only area where my students are showing growth potential!

They are working hard on their grammar and writing skills, and I'd love to make learning these concepts more interactive and fun. The Mrs. Wordsmith workbook looks amazing, and the Lakeshore Match & Sort Quickies are just what we need to make those important social-emotional connections. They would engage my students and provide them with different avenues for literacy comprehension.

With your support, I can create a classroom brimming with opportunities for my students to blossom into confident readers and writers. A simple Brain Quest workbook, some fun pencil erasers and these tools would allow me to deliver dynamic, engaging lessons that ignite their passion for learning and set them up for success, not just in third grade, but for years to come. Thank you for your consideration.
