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

In my math classroom, students face challenges that prevent them from reaching their full potential, especially when it comes to mastering more advanced math concepts. Currently, we lack enough calculators for every student. These calculators will not only enhance their learning experience but also build confidence in solving problems that require technology, liike calculating complex equations. By having individual calculators, every student will have equal access to the tools they need to succeed in math.

These calculators will be used every day in my classroom during lessons, group work, and homework assignments.

Whether they are solving complex problems or preparing for tests, these calculators will give my students the support they need to perform at their best.

With your donation, we can equip every student in the class with a calculator, ensuring that all students have access to the tools necessary to learn and thrive in math. Your support will directly contribute to their success in this essential subject.
