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.

I am a sixth grade teacher in a low income school in Texas with a growing ESL population. I also teach inclusion classes as well as gifted and talented students. As you can see, my students abilities are diverse.

Teaching such a diverse group of students can be very rewarding, yet at the same time quite a challenge. As their teacher I work hard to provide a quality education for all of my students, but due to the economy our funds are somewhat limited.

I would like to provide my students with these learning games in order to give them the opportunity to experience hands on practice in our math skills and at the same time keep them interested in Math. I don't want my students leaving my class talking about how boring it was. I want them to be having so much fun learning, that they don't want to leave.

Your help will make it possible for me to reach so many more of my students, as they will be experiencing math in a positive way. Together we can show my students Math can be a fun and rewarding adventure.
