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

Middle school mathematics can be very challenging for students to master. The use of bright and engaging interactive notebooks for students to organize their notes has made it easier for my students to learn concepts and stay organized throughout the school year.

My middle school students are an eager group of learners tackling challenging math concepts.

Many of my students are enrolled in math courses where they are learning standards one or two years above their current grade level. These materials will help my students create notebooks that are bright, fun, and filled with the essential concepts they will need to be successful in my class.
