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

My students love solving problems and working together during math time. They enjoy discussing math and finding solutions to a variety of problems.

This assortment of math games and puzzles will give my students a chance to practice their math skills independently.

They will be able to work alone or with partners to solve engaging math puzzles and problems. These puzzles and games will give them some independent practice time to review previously taught skills and to work on their problem-solving skills. My students will enjoy playing these games and puzzles during our math station and intervention time.
