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

My second-grade team is working hard to set our students up for success this school year. Unfortunately, due to budget cuts, we had to discontinue our previous math fluency program because of the high cost of printing materials.

That’s why I am requesting the Rocket Math Online program.

This effective and engaging program builds math fluency through daily practice. With Rocket Math, our students will be able to track their own progress and gain confidence as they advance from addition to multiplication and beyond.

Your support will help our second-grade team provide structured math fluency practice for all 175 of our students.

Thank you for helping our class blast off toward math success!
