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

Help me bring Math Library’s into our School!

Currently a Math Coach in Newark Public Schools, I have the privilege of helping 700+ students.

I am hoping to create a Math Library where kids can learn about Math in fun and creative ways. With this project, I will create a scavenger hunt that leads them to clues and books to explore what they will be learning in the upcoming school year.

Without these materials, this idea is … just an idea. Please help us make this project possible! With your generosity our students will begin to explore Math in a new way!
