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

This project is needed to adapt a math intervention program for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders who are struggling the most with different concepts needed to grow their math brain. These resources will be used during a dedicated time that will be spent meeting the students at their individual levels in a small group setting.

About 85% of the students attending our school come from low-income backgrounds from different high-need communities in Chicago.

Although the majority of our students and their families have faced challenges since the COVID-19 pandemic started, they still love school and are eager to learn. This pandemic has resulted in at least one positive thing: students continue to work through learning barriers every day.

With this project, our students will be able to grasp the math that is being presented to them in a small setting. The materials from TPT will help provide games that will build math fluency and a deeper understanding of math concepts.
