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 Students

I teach math to young mathematicians in high school. These students come with various needs met with the desire to have and enjoy their learning experience. Their charisma, passion, and dedication to learning encourage me to provide my students with​ the best high school mathematics experience I can. My mathematics team and I are dedicated to providing students reading and writing opportunities in the mathematics classroom. Although most students come from low-income homes, that does not stop their urge to learn and be creative. My students participate in various clubs and activities willingly in enrichment and/or remediation. My students all look forward to gaining all the knowledge they can as so that they can move on to their next step in life after high school and be successful in College.

My Project

Providing paper to our classroom allows me to print every lesson for my student will saves time copying questions and more time on actual practice. This also allows me to provide more resources such as online articles to ensure each student receives the as much information as they can to master the concept. Providing students with binders allows them to keep their classwork organized. This allows for students to store their focused notes and classwork in their binders to help review for quizzes and exams. The pocket chart allows my students to easily access classroom materials such as compasses and rulers on a daily basis.
