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 Students

My students, a majority of whom are English language learners, attend a Title I school, highly impacted by poverty and trauma. However, my students' resiliency to these adverse conditions is inspiring. In an effort to help foster their resiliency and meet their needs, students at our school are now learning within a two-teacher model. I am their math teacher.

My students come to me wanting and excited to learn math, especially when hands-on materials are available for them to build concrete understanding of math concepts, and with the added bonus of MAGNETS!

I can tell you the engagement will be through the roof!

My Project

Every single student will have the magnetic math materials they need in their hands!

When students have access to these math manipulatives, they will be able to work individually, with partners and in a whole group with ease.

Students can move material at their level and how they need, empowering them to master the concept of place value.

The added bonus of having magnets on the place value blocks will help students to organize the materials, having them staying in place, not falling to the floor or getting pushed to the side, causing possible confusion.

The magnetic boards supplied by donors will be a double duty tool. Not only will it serve as a workspace for the student, but a place to write out equations, story problems and all of the other mathematical thinking they will be engaged in.
