Celebrating 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 come to Resource in order to receive some extra small group or one-on-one support in both reading and mathematics. All students have been designated as needing Individualized Education Plans.
The services and life-skills that I provide to students in grades 1-8 hopefully prove to be a benefit and support that a child needed and at just the right time in their educational careers.
Sometime all it takes is a good ear and an engaging activity to spark the interest in my students lives. They just sometimes need a little extra push and the comfort of knowing that I am right behind them cheering them on.
My Project
I am requesting a tub of financial literacy manipulatives, including; coin sets, magnetic paper money, and eight sets of the Monopoly board games for use as a culminating classroom activity.
As my first DonorsChoose.org project, I believe these math manipulatives will allow my students to understand the leap from money concepts, to those based on the place value system.
We will build upon our understanding of finances and have a dedicated board game day where the entire classroom gets to play Monopoly with their friends and classmates. The skills learned in these activities can help shape the basis of understanding in a childs’ eyes for many years to come.
Thank you for helping this seasoned veteran teacher to become a teach savvy DonorsChoose.org using educator!
