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

The larger whiteboard, whiteboard markers, magnets, and magnetic place value manipulatives will create a more interactive and engaging learning environment, enhancing student participation and comprehension, especially in math. These resources will allow for dynamic lessons and hands-on activities, making abstract concepts tangible and easier to grasp.

Our goal is to foster a stimulating and collaborative classroom where students take ownership of their learning.

I plan to use the large white board for small groups or one on ones to provide extra support to me students. My students are a diverse and enthusiastic group who show remarkable curiosity, creativity, and resilience, always ready to support one another and embrace new challenges.
