Help me give my students ETA hand2mind math fluency kit to expand and improve their math skills. Number paths are a great hands-on tool that allow students to see the connections between numbers.

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 Students
My students are ages 8-9. The majority of my students are ELL (English Language Learners) whose parents work most of the day and into the evening. They spend most of their day in school, and in after school programs. Sadly, my students do not get a lot of adult attention or support and come to school in need of emotional support as well as academic support.
The students that I have are hardworking, determined, grateful, and curious.
These are just a few words that describe the amazing young people that enter my classroom each day.
My students try to learn to the best of their abilities but need a lot of small group work. They are eager to learn yet often times when they leave here they no longer have the English support they need. I try to engage my students in the classroom as much as I can by providing a variety of activities and send them with things to do at home to support the work we did in class. They are our future, and I want to give them a great start to their long successful careers.
My Project
Students in my classroom are given the opportunity to think deeper about numbers with Number Talks. These talks have a focused scope and sequence of number talks to increase math fluency while imbedding a hands-on learning approach. I want to use ETA hand2mind math fluency kit to expand and improve their math skills. Number talks along with number paths enhance an environment for deeper mathematical thinkers.
This engaging way of thinking and promoting independence in my classroom will enhance learning by connecting students to real world problems, improve students' attitudes towards learning, and keep students engaged.
I want my students to have a strong mathematical foundation an dotes materials will help. Thank you for your help!
