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

I love how excited my students are to learn, especially in math. The things I'm asking for will help them learn better. The rolling drawer cart will keep our materials organized, and the laminator and protector sheets will make our math tools last longer. The dry erase pockets will let us solve problems and erase easily, and the wireless doorbell will help me have a classroom management system. The mini fridge will keep our snacks fresh for those students in need of one. My goal is to make sure everyone can do their best in our math class. What makes my students special is that they all come from different backgrounds and have their own ideas, which makes our math class really interesting and full of cool things to learn.
