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

Aspirantes con Orgullo! My students are sixth graders at a bilingual charter school. Students receive education in both English and in Spanish, wherefore by the time they move onto high school, they will be fully bilingual. We are a Title I school, with 90% percent of our students coming from low income families.

Many of our students have not had the opportunity to really explore and flourish in the area of Math.

My goal as a Math teacher is to allow my students to make a meaningful connection to each topic I present to them through small groups, videos, presentations, stations, etc. Seeing my students enjoy learning about the world around them and making connections brings me such joy and pleasure! To be able to provide my students with more supplies to further their love for learning and MATH, would mean a great deal.

My Project

Having the proper materials will give students a better opportunity to thrive in the classroom. This is what I am trying to accomplish with my project. I would like to give my students the basic necessities to help them explore areas of math.

These materials are going to be very beneficial for my students to grow as mathematicians.

Students will be able to use the white copy paper to work out math problems and analyze the work of their peers in order to solve. The dry erase markers will allow them to work out problems and edit easily on white boards. Every good math student does their work in pencils, which is why I am requesting these also for my students. Mistakes are expected, respected, inspected, and corrected in math class and using erasers and pencils allow us to do so. Lined paper will students to take proper notes on mathematical vocabulary. We will also be able to display our newly learned vocabulary using the permanent markers.

Supplies are needed in order to people real world mathematicians and my students will use each supply in order to achieve their mathematical goals.
