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 materials will make a difference for them as many students come from homes where parents cannot provide these valuable items that are essential for their educational growth. The material will help me to keep them engaged by being able to embed it in the lesson plans for the students' growth in writing conventions, literacy, letter recognition, phonological awareness, reading comprehension, and phonemic awareness. My students are future engineers, entrepreneurs, doctors, teachers and nurses. For example, the first week of school focus on letter recognition and print concept recognition with the Alphabet Tracing Board, Wood Double-Sided Letters can help students will be able to practice their motor skills in learning to write the alphabet letters.

Ms. Richardson Mabel B Wesley Elementary School Grades PreK-2
