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 Project
My project is to teach the kids how to become an entrepreneur. This project is to have my students work in groups of 4/5. They think of a product they can make and sell. They use their basic knowledge of mathematics to understand profit and loss, markups, and the basics of marketing their product. How their input will effect their output, meaning the effort they put into this project will show with the response they get from others.
Entrepreneurship - Be Your Own Boss!!
Once I told my students that line, they were interested. I explained to my students how math is not about numbers, equations, or computations: it is about understanding how to make math real in their lives. T
The supplies I requested are what the students need to make their product, for example the products are hair accessories, customize water bottles and customize ipad tablet cases. I also requested snacks for the kids. Students are always hunger and they are constantly asking if I have any treats. So I hope you can help me help to get the items the kids need.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
