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

After not being in school since March, our students are eager to get back in school and eager to learn. We are a Title I building with a large diverse population. Our staff helps to encourage students to not only reach their academic potential but also motivate students to grow in kindness. Students take pride in doing the right thing, even when no one is looking! I look forward to working with these kids each and every day!

Every student contributes their own personal experiences, interests, and talents that enliven our daily learning experiences.

There is never a dull moment in the classroom. My students share funny stories and love to laugh and learn. Many students are reading above grade level and others are in love with Math and Science. I even have some young budding artists. They are unique and special!

I have a classroom full of leaders. I am lucky to be their teacher.

My Project

This project is all about developing number sense in my students with number line tools. Number sense is an important construct that separates surface level understanding from subject mastery. Find out how it affects mathematical fluency and how your learners can develop it.

So, what is number sense and why it is important for learners to develop this skill?

The construct of number sense refers to a child’s fluidity and flexibility with numbers. It helps children understand what numbers mean, improving their performance of mental mathematics, and giving them the tools to look at math in the outside world and make comparisons.
