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
My students are all Hispanic. Most of them do not have a computer or other technology at home. They are exposed to violence and socioeconomic limitations, like lack of food or resources, others take for granted. Our school provides a safe environment away from gangs and other socioeconomic limitations.
In my classroom, my students get to dream with the sky as the limit.
They've planned future traveling plans, designed their dream homes, and have become celebrated community heroes. The classroom is a safe haven where dreaming big is encouraged. Nothing is impossible when they dream, write, and share their future plans. They will thrive as enthusiastic learners when they are provided with memories that will last a lifetime. They will experience and recollect their memories in a whole new way.
My Project
As almost everyone knows and understands, math simply cannot be learned without visuals and hands-on activity for most, if not all. Research has shown time and time again that students need hands on opportunities to manipulate numbers and new concepts.
You will be funding students exploring with abacus and ten-frame mats to that they can have a strong foundation for number sense.
Quality math instruction relies on resources like these to support learning and true understanding. The Edx Education Abacus will help me give the math lessons better during distance learning so that my students can see how to manipulatives the math tools at home by themselves. Manipulatives are for EVERYONE, but certainly are an even greater help to a certain population of students. Thank you in advance for your generosity!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
