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.
Most of my students are right below the fourth grade math and reading levels. We are an inner city school where the average family falls in the low-income category. We are a small neighborhood Title I Public School and have only two classrooms per grade level. All the teachers, regardless of the grade they teach, have a strong relationship with all the students in the building. We do believe that it takes a village, and when the children graduate from our school, we all take pride in the fact we were all part of the process.
Our students come to school every day ready to learn in spite of the challenges they face on a daily basis.
Because of that, they inspire me to live up to their expectations and give them a reason to overcome some of those challenges and be excited to learn new things.
My Project
Most students need to visualize Math strategies and skills. Plain paper and pencils may not be as fun and therefore they might not give it their all. I want to get them to be excited and engaged with Math and try to make it fun for them.
Using magnetic white boards and color markers to figure out the math solutions would be so much fun and they would love using different strategies and skills.
In addition to using the markers, they could use magnetic manipulatives to help them visual the Math process. The boards and markers can be used in small group and for independent work.
