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

So one of my biggest heart aches is that the coronavirus has left a tremendous deficit in basic math skills for kindergarten. Now that our students have returned to school so many of our young students are having to be retained an additional year due to the struggle of learning these basic math skills. My goal is to enhance and ensure a positive hands-on learning experience so that they can have everything that they need to have a successful school year. I love the eagerness of these young minds when I see a struggling student fill with so much joy after learning a skill that they had so much trouble struggling with. Please help me create this hands-on learning dream that I have for my students become a reality..
