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'm teaching high school geometry for the first time in our school's history to high ability 8th graders. I want to make the content come alive for students and I want to make sure we have all of the tools we need to succeed.

Help me make sure our geometry students have the manipulatives and math tools they need to excel in geometry.

This project covers compasses and straight edges for paper/pencil constructions as well as table storage for these materials and some additional manipulatives to help the content come alive for students.
