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

Writing tools are vital tools for encouraging students' mathematical curiosity and conceptual understanding. In my classes, students solve grade-level problems and need writing tools to help them complete their work and share their math thinking with their group members and with the class. My students work in groups of four, and they often work on hands-on activities such as card sorts which require them to use dry erase markers and erasers daily to show their thinking.

My students work together to ensure they can show their math thinking on white boards throughout the classroom.

This ensures students and helps to make math fun. Because they are writing on white boards every day, they will need plenty of dry erase markers.
