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 diagnosed with autism and other disabilities. They each face challenges brought on by their diagnosis every day and struggle to communicate. Most of my students come from low-income areas, get free lunch and some even use devices to communicate. Despite their disabilities, they strive and work hard every single day and come in with big smiles on their faces, eager, and ready to learn. My students are each very special in their own ways and I am determined to do whatever I can to help meet their unique needs.
My Project
When schools closed in March, Happy Numbers provided teachers with free access to their math online program. Our students loved the program and so did we. It was a great tool to have in order to further support our students during remote learning.
Our students are between blended learning and remote learning and we would like to continue supporting them with a math online program they love so that they can continue to practice skills taught in school or remotely.
Schedules for both groups include asynchronous, therefore this program will support them in various environments. The program is also a great tool for teachers to further assess students in the area of math. The outcomes within the lessons will allow teachers to include math skills in their own lessons that are not yet mastered.
More than three‑quarters of 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
