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

Our 2nd grade students are full of energy and eager to learn and explore through multiple hands on activities. My students live in the Mott Haven section of the Bronx with many of them coming from shelters and low income families. When they come into the classroom they are encouraged to stay motivated and reach for the stars. I love teaching the skills my students need and allowing them to experience mathematics in fun and creative ways that will make them life long learners.

My Project

My students love hands on activities and math centers are just that. It empowers them by allowing them to have an active role in their learning. We would love to get math centers that are differentiated to meet students needs and interest. They also provide much needed review, practice and enrichment during each math unit.

These center activities will provide students with the additional enrichment in addition and subtraction number sense, place value, regrouping, telling time, counting money and measurerement.

These math centers will target students' real learning needs. My 2nd graders will build independence and practice the skills needed to further their mathematical knowledge.
