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 Students

Middle school students are full of life. They are interested in the world around them, socially, environmentally, and technologically. A majority of my students have Hispanic heritage, and many are first-generation American citizens. About 60% of the student population is receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which indicates the poverty level. They have challenges that are different from any I faced growing up, and every day they amaze me with their fortitude!

My students need a variety of inspiration to stay motivated to succeed at math.

They are in a special time of their lives when they are starting to make choices that will affect their whole lives. As their math teacher, I strive to teach and reach every one of my changing students, reminding them that whatever else is going on in their lives, they have the brains and strength to succeed.

My Project

With many 1st generation immigrant families as part of our school's community, it is very difficult for us to get parent participation. The reasons are varied and not what this project is about.

I try every year to get as many families from our school's community to attend the annual Family Math and Science Night.

This year, I would like to encourage families to come by offering some different and exciting math, science and technology prize incentives. The materials I am asking for will be used during the event and will also be given out as prizes afterwards. For examples, calculators will be used to calculate heart rates of students' family members and then raffled off at the end of the evening. Everyone receives one free raffle ticket; we do not make any money on the event.

Please consider donating for our Family Math and Science Night. It will be greatly appreciated!
