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

I always start my class with a class chant where my students shout and cheer that they are “brave, smart, and unstoppable”. As their teacher this year, I am beyond proud of what they can accomplish under the strain of the current year. What my kids lack in technology and resources, they make up for with their boundless determination and resilience. I teach math and science--the goal is for all 49 of my first-grade students to have math manipulatives to strengthen their learning!

My students come from low-income households, so my absolute hope is that I can provide a classroom environment that is both positive and meaningful with the best tools and materials!

My Project

Hands on learning makes all the difference--especially in my math class! I have a total of 49 first-graders this year who are all excited to return to school! The materials in this package will target learners who are in need of specific math instruction and intervention to meet their learning goals for this school year!

I know for certain that these math manipulatives will achieve these learning goals; at the same time, the ability to manipulate their own learning will empower them and create a sense of fun while learning!
