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

I would love to have my students experience some fun, entertaining and high interest math puzzles. These puzzles allow the students to think differently and solve complex problems independently. These creative and complex puzzles provide wonderful opportunities to take risks, collaborate, and plan to solve problems both by themselves and working with partners during math rotations.

We are trying to think differently and try problem solving in a unique way.

These puzzles are the perfect way to have students enjoy math more. We are excited to try math rotations and have students be excited to go to the puzzle rotations.
