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

Our school strives to find the leader in all students. Every child has capabilities, talents, and strengths; sometimes, all it takes is exposure or motivation. The students in my class strive for excellence. They all inherently care about one another and continually make an effort to improve in all aspects. I have 70 students who are tenacious and eager to learn in spite of many challenges. Of the 70 students, fifteen are special education students, eight receive resource services, five receive speech therapy and three receive counseling. I work with a population of students who come from low-income families and a neighborhood with limited economic resources. In spite of these challenges, these students have a great desire to achieve regardless of the financial setbacks.

My Project

My students and I found the perfect combination of education and fun using math centers.

The center activities are created and designed base on the needs of the students.

These activities will help students to achieve a greater understanding of the lesson outcomes taught.

I believe that learning should be hands-on, student-directed, and relevant to students' lives.

I work in a small neighborhood school that values creativity and emphasizes that students can learn from both success and failure.

I love that my school encourages students to do more than prepare for standardized tests. My students grow up knowing that learning is fun and relevant to their lives.

We will use these materials like paper, a label maker and markers during Math workshop. After I teach a mini-lesson on a math topic, my class will work at different centers while I pull small groups to work more closely on specific math topics. Some students might review a recently learned topic with a partner using the "Common Core Math”.
