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

I teach at a school with an accelerated track for high achievers and a robust arts program including a steel pan band. The school admits students from across Brooklyn and Queens and serves grades 5 to 8. Most students arrive in sixth grade, but families concerned about competition for good middle schools may want to get a leg up by applying for fifth grade.

My students are motivated, self-driven, and are always excited about learning mathematics on a daily basis.

The highest achievers are placed in an accelerated program after sixth grade, which includes honors classes in seventh grade and Regents courses in algebra and living environment in eighth grade.

My students are always outperforming their peers in other classes based on the engaging, activity-based, rich curriculum that fosters critical thinking and allow my students to use the inquiry approach to investigate math task given.

My Project

Having these binders students will use section dividers to create their portfolios. These portfolios will store their quizzes , tests, projects and all class notes and hand outs. Students will use these binders to showcase their work and will allow their parents to monitor they progress throughout the school year. These portfolios will also be used as promotional decisions for the next grade at the end of the school year. It will also teach students how to organize their work in preparation for high school, college and the real world.
