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

Our classroom houses an amazing bunch. They continue to grow and are blossoming into their own unique selves. Each day my students are happy and excited to be at school. All of my students strive hard to accomplish goals and to perform well. They enjoy working together in English Language Arts and Math.

What is the greatest thing about my class is how comfortable and safe they feel to make mistakes, build relationships, and prepare for their future!

They are eager and anticipate what they will be doing each day. In my classroom we start the day happy and cheerful and we end the day just the same.

My Project

As a first year teacher, there are many materials and manipulatives I lack to provide my students with a varied and accessible instruction. I hope that with the appropriate materials that my students can thrive in their math skills and feel prepared as they continue onto the next grade.

The materials I have chosen will help me provide additional support for students utilizing strategies that correlates with our curriculum.

With that being said, our goal in our class is to be strong mathletes. We practice and train every day to do our best and exercise our brains! The use of number lines, number bonds, and base ten blocks are essential to master our standards in mathmatical concepts. What better way than to be hands on!
