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

My students are in the 3rd grade and need to learn how to manage, budget and save their money. Most important my students need to become experts in number sense to be able to understand and carry out their personal finances.

Our school is a Title 1 school and the majority of students qualifies for a free lunch.

My students come from a high poverty neighborhood with a very diverse range of home structures. Some of the students in my class are not working at grade level in math and they lack the basic skills to be able to add, subtract, multiply and divide. My students are faced with many challenges yet they are eager to learn and enjoy anything that has to do with hands-on activities.

My Project

With your kind donations my students will be able to have access to different hands-on activities that will help them understand the basics of adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing which are very important skills they need to understand money. Learning financial skills now, can help my students spend wisely, save more and make good financial choices in the future.

My project is very important because my students need to master the basic skills such as adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing, and working with fractions in order to understand about money.

The hands-on activities such as Math Money Centers, Math Flash Cards and Hot Dots Quiz Cards will help them became stronger in number sense, therefore allowing them to carry on and learn about money, saving and spending.
