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

My students are a very energetic, competitive group. One of their favorite periods is Math Games on Friday, our classroom is charged with energy as they compete against each other.

I believe that learning should be a fun experience, and to encourage my students' love for competition, I would like to provide them with new games to help them to develop their math and science skills.

Also, I would like to have an iPad and Apple

pencil to use to assess student understanding, and adapt instruction when necessary during my lessons. As teachers, we often have to multi-task to be able to meet our students' varying needs.
