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

Every year students come into the classrooms ready to learn! It's exciting to see what they know from kindergarten and getting them ready to dive into first grade curriculum. New math tools are needed because students in my classroom have been using the same tools since 2010. I take care of the materials in my room, but it's time for an upgrade. I want my students to have their own math tools to share with partners. The math toolkits will be ready for students to use when they begin the school year!

If I get new math toolkits for students to use in class, then I can send home the old materials for students to use at home.
