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

Math is never hard, it is only a challenge!

My students know that they can never say a math problem is hard, they say it is a challenge.

When a student believes it is hard they give up much easier than if it is a challenge. The math games and whiteboards will help keep students learning in a fun and positive way. Playing math games is educational and entertaining at the same time! Positive attitude is so important for growth, the positive attitudes of the students is because of the generosity from Donors Choose!
