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

My mathematician will be able to engage in their learning by using visual aids. My mathematician will also be using hands-on material(printed) to allow more learning in our classroom. Our Mathematicians learn best when making their own experiences. For example reflecting on a mistake they made and being able to correct the mistakes, explaining their steps, and showing their work. (Allowing them to use the color pencils so I could see what mistakes they are willing to fix). My mathematicians will use any bright paper and other resources available to insure their learning and will be engaged during their lesson.
