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

As a teacher of geometry and AP calculus to multilanguage learners, special needs students, and mainstream students, I am inspired by their unwavering dedication to learning.

What makes my students special is their eagerness to improve despite their unique challenges.

The materials I'm requesting, including vertical whiteboards and markers of different colors, will make a significant difference in their learning outcomes.

The vertical classroom setup we've established in our math department allows for dynamic and interactive problem-solving, which deepens students' understanding of complex concepts. The markers of various colors and flip charts keep students engaged, making learning more enjoyable and effective.

Overall, these resources will create a more inclusive and engaging learning environment that benefits all of my students. I hope prospective donors will recognize the potential of these materials and the incredible work my students are doing every day to achieve their goals.
