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

As you know, writing is just one of those tasks that can easily become boring to students. My aim is to give students access to a variety of mediums that will keep them interested and entertained. From my experience

My hope is to give students the ability to use chalkboards, LED writing tablets, gel writing boards, and use sand writing trays to give students the ability to find spelling, phonics, and writing assignments fun and engaging.

In using fun writing medium, I hope that my special education students will find joy in the lessons and be inspired to push themselves to close their learning gaps!
