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

With your help, I can provide my students with the necessary resources to help them succeed in both math and literacy. My students are special education resource students and would benefit from these resources. Whether it be through the hand2mind Rainbow Fraction Tower Cubes, Montessori Math Materials, Fraction Manipulatives, Unit Fraction, Fraction Cubes, Math Manipulatives, or the hand2mind ETA Rainbow Fraction/Decimal Tiles, these resources are exactly what my students need to succeed. They’d be a great extension of our learning. They would help create a warm and inviting space to learn!
