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 Project

Every student can learn. There are various methods a student can demonstrate their understanding of a standard/topic. I would like to have various resources for them to display their math knowledge. It could be by doing a whiteboard activity, coloring the correct answer on an assignment, or simply working on an assignment with a classmate.

By having markers and book resources, I can create different activities for them to exhibit what and how they are learning.

The power outlet is for them to charge their school device to complete a task if needed.

I know you can pick any classroom to donate, so thank you for considering ours. My middle school students will benefit from your generosity.
