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

My students are in 7th and 8th grade and attend an older Title I public middle school in Southern California. Title 1 schools are in areas with low socioeconomic areas and receive federal funding so all its students receive free or reduced lunch. Many of our student do not enjoy math when they come into our classes. Our student body is very diverse and supports a variety of cultures and languages.

Experiencing the relationship between art and math will inspire and motivate my students to create artistic projects and learn math simultaneously.

Students in my class range from gifted and talented to students with learning disabilities, and everything in between. This project will give them the supplies needed to create math/art projects. If students have the correct tools art is more accessible and then the students do not struggle to have a successful project. My ultimate goal is to improve the motivation and skills, content core topics, and a love for mathematics and art can be nurtured.
