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

This upcoming school year in our dual language classroom, I would like to focus on our writing and reading curriculum. Many of our students are expected to take State Exams that require them to write essays, reading response and constructive responses. These materials will help students learn how successfully write complete essays and reading response.

My students write in both languages and have to learn all the grammatical rules for both.

These materials will help them successfully balance both language without any confusion and/or transfer the information from one language to another. Please help us built our writing station with the necessary supplies in order to successfully become the great writers we already are.
