Celebrating 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.
Students call it puzzling, creating, building, designing or playing. Teachers call it learning!
I teach math to students in an urban elementary public school. About 70% of my students come from families in need. The student population includes children from a variety of cultural backgrounds and socioeconomic levels.
My school is no different than many urban public schools in that there is a significant achievement gap between students who come from families of means and those who come from families fighting poverty. One reason for this gap is experience or lack there of. My goal is to provide children with as many meaningful experiences with math as I can.
Math manipulatives not only support the skills that students are being taught in the classroom, but extend them into different contexts. Offering students a variety of tactile experiences to support their learning will help them practice what they have learned, retain new information and help them improve their ability to problem solve in new situations.
Your donation will give many students plenty of opportunities to puzzle, create, build, design and play their way to better mathematical understanding and along the way, perhaps even learn to love math!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
