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

I am a teacher of a wonderful class of intelligent, curious, passionate, and fun kindergarteners who love Math.

Counting is one of our favorite things to do in the afternoon after lunch.

My students are still in the stage where they are learning about the meaning of numbers and how those numbers show up in the world. One way to make this abstract concept more concrete is to allow them to use things to practice counting such as ocean animal counters, animal manipulatives, and mini car counters. Please help me give my students the opportunity to sharpen their skills with the tools requested today!
