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
Hands-on learning drives authentic understanding and application versus memorization algorithms, or “tricks.” Students who use manipulatives create physical evidence of thinking and reasoning, solve problems and make sense of mathematical ideas. Experiential learning environments provide endless hands-on learning benefits for children of all ages. Research has shown that students of all ages learn better when they are actively engaged in their learning journey.
Next year I would for my students to be able to expand on their own learning using hands-on materials independently in stations.
I know that your generosity will enhance their level of engagement during our mathematics block.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
