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

Hello! I am a first-grade teacher in Los Angeles. I have taught first grade for ten years as part of a Dual Language Program. Students would spend half of their day in my classroom, where they received curricular instruction in English, and half in my co-teachers classroom, where they received curricular education in Spanish. Next year, I will co-teach with two other teachers: one teacher will provide English Language Arts instruction in Spanish, one teacher will provide English Language Arts instruction in English, and I will provide math instruction in English and Spanish.

I am excited to try this new model of instruction, but since my primary focus will be math in both English and Spanish, I am seeking resources that will help transform my classroom into a print-rich and fun math center.

The resources that I am requesting through Donor's Choose include various math games, including "Active Learning Who's Counting Game" and math puzzles, to name a few. These games will increase student engagement with math and help support collaborative learning skills such as turn-taking.

Other resources I am requesting include manipulatives, such as ten-frames and counters for counting collections, to assist students with moving from concrete observations and experiences with numbers to abstract reasoning. Finally, I am requesting some items for organizational purposes, such as storage caddies to hold supplies and manipulatives for each of my six tables, posters in both English and Spanish and a number line to make my classroom environment print-rich.
