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

This year, my co-teacher and I continue our role as fourth and fifth-grade math teachers! We want to fill our room with the proper materials ( pens, dry-erase markers, laminating pouches, printers, and manipulatives) to help our students learn. We aim to make math fun and exciting so students want to be in our room daily! We need your help to make this possible.

We look forward to creating a classroom with math resources like games, dice, and more so that our students foster a love of math and a joy of learning.
