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 love how curious and energetic my students are, especially when they get to explore math in hands-on ways. They ask thoughtful questions, cheer each other on, and light up when they discover something new. Their excitement makes every lesson more meaningful.

This project, Probability in Action, will bring our probability unit to life.

With jumbo marbles, colored popsicle sticks, and a magnetic coin, students will engage in real-time experiments, make predictions, and analyze outcomes. These tools turn abstract concepts into tangible learning experiences.

To keep motivation high, I’ve also included Airheads as fun rewards. Celebrating effort and participation helps build confidence and a positive classroom culture. Thank you for supporting our learning adventure!
