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

Help supply our classroom with connecting cubes!

Connecting cubes are so important in Kindergarten for math because connecting cubes serve so many purposes.

For starters, they help build counting skills. They also encourage problem solving skills (for example, when students have to make decisions on how to organize their cubes to count as accurately as possible.

Connecting cubes are an important hands-on tool in Kindergarten! In addition, connecting cubes are used to teach children basic math skills such and comparison, addition, and subtraction. These build the necessary foundation for a successful math life.

I thank you in advance for taking the time to read this proposal and hope you consider donating to this special project.
