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

Students can always use additional support and practice to apply their math skills! VersaTiles allow students to independently work and determine mistakes.

As they use VersaTiles, scholars are encouraged to think critically to solve problems, and the books will provide scaffolded word problems for direct instructions!

They have access to identifying their individual mistakes and then need to make the necessary corrections. VersaTiles also allow continued support and review of skills taught throughout the year! These amazing tools will also allow for differentiated practice to meet the specific needs of students. As students practice specific skills, they will become proficient in areas where they were once not.

Ms. Gaie Geraldine W Johnson School Grades 3-5

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
