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

I am a math/science instructional coach on my Title 1 campus. We are an extremely fast growing district, and I have been working tirelessly to get our math manipulatives and science materials organized so that teachers do not have to spend their own money and can easily access and use them with their students.

My ultimate goal is for all students on my campus to have daily access to these manipulatives to support their mathematical and scientific learning.

We want to make sure to grow every scholar every day and make them successful lifelong learners! Help us organize rooms!
