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

Disproportionate attendance, lack of resources, and interrupted instructional time are just a few of the barriers my students face for academic achievement. My goal is to be able to motivate my students and get them to love math by incorporating hands-on, fun learning activities in my classroom. Turning my classroom into a weekly Glow-in-the-dark room will be a great way to review objectives, test prep, and practice problem-solving skills, and above all incentivize them to come to school every day. Attendance is key to closing those gaps. Using glow-in-the-dark materials, like backlights, glow in the dark pens, paper and high visibility safety vests will make learning not only different, but exciting!
