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 work with extraordinary kids! Our day is filled with reviewing prior learned information, grasping new information and a daily empowerment that encourages my students to reach higher to set standards for their learning.

My students are the best students in the world!

Some of them are hard workers who are faced with challenges beyond their control. Most of my students struggle academically in math because they believe or have been told that math is a difficult subject to learn. My school is a community supported institution. It services students who are on free or reduced food plans. It also provides programs and activities to help build relationship between educators and parents.

My Project

My goal as as an educator is to change a child's view of their current learning ability. I want to raise their educational goals and restructure the way they view math. I want them to love learning and to be successful at applying new information. Therefore, I would like to use math games to support learning (critical and high level thinking) to make learning math an enjoyable experience.

My students will enjoy learning and understand that math is not a difficult task but a challenging adventure!

An adventure that will keep my students interested, open and confident in learning math.
