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

On a daily basis, my students use manipulatives in the classroom, especially in math. The students in my classroom benefit from hands-on learning. Whether it be using a clock to tell time, building numbers with place value blocks, or creating geometric shapes. When you put something in their hands the sky is the limit with their learning.

Supplying the students with math manipulatives will help them stay engaged and focused during whole group math and guided math.

Who doesn't love to learn when you can "play" with math tools. They love being able to manipulate the problems and being able to see the answers come to life.
