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 love how curious, creative, and determined my students are when it comes to learning new concepts. They approach challenges with excitement and a willingness to try, even when the material is difficult. Each resource, like a compass, will give them the hands-on tools they need to truly understand geometric constructions. Having the right materials will help my students build precision, confidence, and a deeper appreciation for the beauty of geometry. With these resources, they won't just learn about shapes and angles — they'll experience the process of creating them, which brings the subject to life.
