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'm endeavoring to craft an unforgettable math lesson for all my students! Fractions can be quite challenging to grasp (and teach!), but I believe incorporating food will pique students' interest in learning. Introducing foods like waffles into our math sessions can captivate students and elevate the enjoyment of learning. The tactile sensation of handling and portioning the waffle can serve to solidify the concept of fractions in their minds in a way that sticks.

Waffles, with their natural divisions into equal parts, serve as an exceptional visual aid for understanding fractions.

Each segment of the waffle represents a fraction of the whole, providing a tangible way for students to comprehend fractions more deeply.

Encouraging active involvement, students will physically divide the waffle into fractions themselves during the lesson. This hands-on approach fosters engagement and empowers students to directly manipulate the object, thereby bolstering their grasp of fractions.
