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

Please help me give my students a colorful experience! Coming from a diverse background and participating in a multicultural school with obstacles, my students will strive to exceed their learning goals.

Math is black and white; let's add color to it.

These materials will support students in segmenting, differentiating, and organizing their thoughts in the classroom subjects of reading, writing, math, history, and science.

By supporting our classroom, students will understand math and reading more deeply by segmenting the material into color.
