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

I want my students to have all the resources they need. In Math, I want to have everything they need to optimize their learning. The 'Baby Bear Counters' from learning resources will be used for addition and subtraction lessons as a manipulative to help students. Students will also use the learning clocks from 'hand2mind' during their lesson on telling time, having a direct resource that they can manipulate will help their learning minds. The other resources such as the wooden blocks, number blocks, math mat, and math board games will help create fun and engaging math centers in which they will be learning through play.

Your donation to our project, will not only help to improve and increase student learning, attention, and focus, it will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement in Mathematics and Science.

As for Science, the science kit experiments will be used to create fun and engaging lessons. They will also be learning about life cycles, the 'Scholastic Classroom Resources Science Vocabulary Readers' will be used to focus on the life cycle of their choice and create a project to present in class. I will use the magnet's wands will be used along with the Stem Explorers Magnet Movers to create fun lessons involving critical thinking and spark their curiosity in learning ring Science.
