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 Students

My students are amazing! They receive Math instruction in a second language. Some of my students are dominant in two languages(Spanish and English), others are learning only Spanish as a second language. My students love to learn by just having collaborative group conversations. They love Socratic seminars!! They challenge each other by just asking high-level questions. The level of participation during the seminar is incredible. I am very proud to have students who despite having economic or family barriers, come every day with a positive attitude towards learning.

My Project

The products that I have selected will help my students to have their own math notebook. Also, the copy paper will be used to print students' math projects, homework, worksheets, and daily activities. One of the favorite activities of my students is to use whiteboards to show their math thinking or to solve quick math problems. Dry erase markers are super essential because students use at least three dry erase markers per month. The rest of the items are extremely essential to keep students desks and other areas clean.
