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 currently work in the South Bronx, NY. Our students have a lot of potentials that need to be nurtured. Most of my students live locally within walking distance, and some travel by school bus, city bus to our school. They live in a low socioeconomic neighborhood. Some of them live with grandparents or other family members and some live in shelters, nearly all of them come from low‑income households and get free lunch. They are growing up in a tough neighborhood, one of the poorest in the United States, and often faced difficulties at such an early age.

Our mission is to create a safe, welcoming, and warm environment in the classroom so they could know how special they are.

We always start our day with positive affirmations hoping that they carry these words with them in their life to help them remember their worth.

My Project

Games give students opportunities to explore fundamental number concepts, Engaging mathematical games can also encourage students to explore number combinations, place value, patterns, and other important mathematical concepts. Further, they afford opportunities for students to deepen their mathematical understanding and reasoning. By providing repeated opportunities for students to play games, we are letting the mathematical ideas emerge as students notice new patterns, relationships, and strategies. Games are an important tool for learning in elementary school mathematics classrooms:

• Playing games encourages strategic mathematical thinking as students find different strategies for solving problems and deepen their understanding of numbers.

• Games present opportunities for practice, often without the need for teachers to provide the problems.

• Games support a school-to-home connection. Parents can learn about their children’s mathematical thinking by playing games with them at home.
