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 school is filled with energetic Title I learners. As a math teacher, I would like to turn my students into lifelong learners through STEM. My students learn through discovery and self-exploration.

Our students are eager learners who enjoy challenging lessons in STEM and the arts.

We proudly provide our scholars with a strong academic program that includes project-based learning, use of technology in the classroom, digital learning, various reading incentive programs, and learning platforms tailored to each student's academic needs and aspirations.

My Project

Our students will begin a semester-long project focusing on entrepreneurship. We will create and develop a restaurant. Students will develop a menu, logo, floor plan and cost analysis for supplies. Each of these steps will be completed both at home and in school. Each aspect draws on a different unit of our fifth-grade math course.

Our project will require the use of our entire fifth-grade math curriculum, including geometry, financial literacy, and algebraic thought.

This project will also offer an artistic aspect. Students will be asked to design a logo and floor plan. A final display will be required. Students will use printer and printer ink to complete displays. Cardstock and copy paper will also be used for displays.
