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

Students are more engaged when they are able to be hands on. With the items that I am wanting my students will be able to be engaged and hands on when learning about 3D figures. For some students 3D figures are a hard concept to grasp because it is hard to see the 3D on paper. With the hands on materials that I am asking for, my students will be able to have a visual and be able to understand 3D figures better. With this material, I will be able to have a lesson to meet the needs of all of my students.
