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

"GameMathics", a project that seamlessly integrates math concept into interactive computer games. From solving puzzles that reinforce algebraic principles to navigating mathematical mazes that challenge geometry skills, this project transforms learning into captivating gaming experience.

Math multiplies opportunities, divide efforts, adds up your success, subtract failures and equals your full potential.

Being a middle school teacher, I have a unique set of challenges, requiring a delicate balance of fostering students' intellectual growth, navigating diverse personalities, and addressing the transitional phase they undergo. The dynamic nature of this age group, coupled with the responsibility of imparting knowledge while fostering social and emotional development, makes teaching at the middle school both demanding and rewarding. That is the reason why I want to make my class to be engaging as possible. So, I am hoping that you can help my students be successful in Math through the use of a MacBook Pro.

In this project, students can apply mathematical concepts using interactive math game. The MacBook Pro applications will reinforce algebra skills, promote critical thinking and problem solving skills in a fun and engaging way. Moreover, it will provide a hands-on and enjoyable experience while mastering essential Math concepts.
