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

In my classroom, my students use magnetic drawing boards and LCD writing tablets to learn about new spelling patterns. They write the letters and words with the spelling pattern, and on occasion, they can add pictures to their words.

I want my students to be able to practice their newly acquired reading skills at home with magnetic boards and LCD writing tablets.

The magnetic drawing boards and LCD writing tablets help my students write spelling patterns without fear of making mistakes like they would with a pencil and paper. They also give them practice gripping the pencil correctly when they write. I really appreciate your contribution to my students' success.
