Celebrating 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
My students love the arts. My school is gives students the choice of a pathway for their elective classes: acting or design. To tap into the artistic leanings of my students is to engage them fully and show them the meaning within the mathematics that we learn.
I will use the Geometry tools for our math department to help students visualize and transform shapes to allow greater entry and access to the curriculum by making it more hand-on.
Students learn best through visuals and tactile activities, especially in Geometry. This will help our whole math department have the best tools to teach our student population.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
