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

Being a fourth-grade teacher can be full of adventure. I try to provide my students with a safe space to learn, including when they might get an answer wrong. Isn't that what learning being all about? As we venture into the land of numerator and denominator, there has been a roadblock in understanding fractional concepts. I love taking my students on the "fraction" journey.

Keeping the students interested in a topic that many struggle with can be challenging.

The Lakeshore Building Fractions Activity Center can help the class kinetically and visually build a better understand of fractions. The Lakeshore Giant Magnetic Fraction Circles & Bars will assist with deepening comprehension of equivalent fractions. Lastly, Classroom Wired Headphones will give the students an opportunity to focus on I-Ready math/Reading curriculum without distraction; therefore students will become proficient in the academic endeavor.

Thank you in advance for investing in my students. I can't wait to show you how they "Fraction This!"
