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

Several months back, I successfully secured funding for four mobile whiteboards for my project. I'm thrilled with their impact on my classroom! I now seek your support for boxes of diverse Expo markers. Our experience with the whiteboards has been excellent; students collaborate in groups, particularly in our Geometry class. Requesting a variety of colored Expo markers is aimed at facilitating their learning further. With different colors, students can establish connections within problems and effectively explain concepts to their peers during collaborative sessions.

The primary goal of this project is to secure a range of colored markers to enhance the students' experience with the whiteboards.

The markers will serve as valuable tools in fostering interactive and effective learning in the Geometry class.

What makes my students truly special is their remarkable willingness to try. Their positive attitude and eagerness to participate contribute significantly to the dynamic learning environment in our classroom.
